A Year of Delivery for Fonterra
Fonterra’s 2026 financial year was a year of delivery, with record volumes of milk collected, processed and shipped by the co-op.
Fonterra is planning to market cheese in its Anchor product range.
Fonterra Brands New Zealand director of marketing, Clare Morgan, refers to the brand’s tradition of a love of dairy and innovation.
“When pioneer Henry Reynolds launched Anchor in 1886 he would have never imagined that over a century later more than 150 Anchor products would be sold every minute.”
As well as the traditional Tasty, Colby and Edam, the range will have two additions – Protein+ and Zero Lacto.
“Our Zero Lacto cheese is another option for Kiwis with lactose intolerance,” Morgan says.
Protein+ has 26% more protein than Anchor Tasty and is an easy way to increase protein in a diet. At least 160 Anchor products are sold in 80 countries.
Three men have been sentenced in District Courts after Ministry for Primary Industries prosecutions over animal welfare, food safety and cattle tracing offences.

OPINION: The Government's decision to reinstate agriculture and horticultural science as a standalone subject from Year 11 is the right one.
Dairy farmers, still holding onto their Fonterra shares despite switching milk supply elsewhere or exiting the industry, now face a stricter share sell-down requirement.
Hamilton-based agritech company Aimer Farming has completed a $3 million capital raise to support its next stage of growth, including a beef farming product due to launch in 2027.
When dairy manager Miriam Lauridsen learned the farm, she was joining held weekly health and safety meetings, she initially thought that was “a bit over the top”. Experiencing that culture changed her mind.
OPINION: It seems Canterbury processor Synlait is still in the doldrums.
OPINION: Get offside with New Zealand First leader Winston Peters at your own peril.
