Milk & Dairies in the Nordic Countries By Anna Marie Thøgersen The largest and the smallest There are huge differences between the sizes and market orientations of the Nordic dairies. On top of the scale we find Arla Foods, the regions absolute largest dairy possessing 6.3 billion kg of milk out of the total annual milk amount of 12 billion kg. Arla Foods is too, very export oriented and No. Country Dairy The approx. 80 large and small Nordic dairies produce all kinds of dairy goods sold on the home markets as well as on several export markets. Yearly, the Nordic dairy farmers deliver almost 12 billion kg milk. This is a little more than the total milk amount produced in Italy, another great dairy-area. markets more than half of the dairy products outside the Nordic Region. At the other end, we find one of the smallest a yet the largest and only dairy on the Faroe Islands, MBM (Meginfelag Búnaðarmanna). MBM has an annual milk intake of only 8 million kg, of which all are refined into fresh dairy products and exclu- Milk in million kg No. of milk farmers Dairy plants sively sold on the Faroese home market. The Nordic giants The Danish-Swedish dairy giant, Arla Foods is by far the dominate in the Nordic region, as the 7.600 highly efficient co-operative dairy farmers and their company produces, manufactures and markets more than 50% of the milk available in the region. In the Nordic area, Arla Foods is present in Denmark and Sweden and in Finland as Arla Ingman. In Denmark the company has around 90% of the milk market. In Sweden and Finland the percentages are approx. 60% respectively 20%. Valio in Finland is the regions second largest dairy company having around 80% of the Finnish milk and the home market for dairy products. The yearly milk intake amounts 1.8 billion kg delivered by the company’s 10.000 primarily smaller family-run dairy farms. The TINE dairy in Norway is the absolute dominant company in the country, as TINE possesses 98% of the total milk production. The yearly milk amount delivered by the company’s 15.000 dairy farmers is almost 1.5 billion kg. 6 MÆLKERITIDENDE 2010 NR. 8 Staff 1 Arla Foods 4.200 3.800 26 7.600 2 Arla Foods 1.900 3.800 15 3.200 3 Valio 1.800 10.000 15 4.400 4 TINE 1.450 15.000 44 5.700 5 Skånemejerier 350 570 3 590 6 Milko 300 900 4 800 7 Arla Ingman 280 1.200 5 500 8 Norrmejerier 190 470 3 475 9 Falköping 140 190 3 80 10 MS Iceland Dairies 120 700 8 450 11 Synnøve Finden 100 - 2 220 12 Thise 87 87 1 120 13 Mammen 70 - 2 70 14 Q-Meierierne 65 500 3 85 15 Them 48 33 1 50 All Totals Top-15 dairies 11.100 36.550 136 24.340 Top-15 Nordic Dairies ranked in relation to yearly milk amount.

Medium-sized dairies In between the large and small Nordic dairies we find a handful of medium-sized dairy companies, primarily located in Sweden. To the far-south Skåne Dairy is dominate both on the Scanian home market and by now also exporting dairy goods to Denmark. Mid-Sweden we can characterize as Milko-land, as the country’s third largest dairy, Milko is dominant. To the North we find Norrmejerier producing and supplying the region with all kinds of dairy goods. Also in Island and Norway two medium-sized dairies are well-known; MS Iceland Dairies produces and supply the home market with all pos- NR. 8 A PERFECT MIX FOR THE FOOD INDUSTRY Scanima’s mixing expertise, in combination with Tetra Pak’s vast knowledge and experience, means more comprehensive and fl exible production solutions than ever for a wide variety of dairy products, foods and beverages.

Though buying the milk from Tine, the Norwegian dairy Synnøve Finden is an alternative manufacturer and supplier of especially cheeses on the home market. Minor Nordic dairies A large number of small dairies, organized as private, co-operative or one-owner farm dairies are scattered all over the Nordic region. They offer alternatives to the consumers, as they manufacture a lot of special dairy goods, often telling good stories about the country life and the origin of the foods. These small dairies manufacture different niche-products such as organic, made from goat or sheep milk, “handmade” or directly-from-thefarm milk products. Due to the global financial crisis and the consumers more discount-oriented shopping, many of these small dairies face hard times, though. ■ Country Milk in million kg Denmark 4.600 Sweden 3.000 Finland 2.300 Norway 1.500 Iceland 130 Faroe Islands 8 Annual milk amount in each of the Nordic countries.
