FONTERRA’S INGREDIENTS business is an “aircraft carrier” that allows the co-op to visit global markets efficiently, says chief executive Theo Spierings.

FONTERRA HOPES to be collecting 30 billion litres of milk worldwide by 2025, says chief executive Theo Spierings.

FONTERRA IS assuring farmers that the milk payout will remain its main priority.

Pineapple-flavoured milk and cream are two of the products being churned out by Fonterra's new $120 million UHT milk processing site at Waitoa in the Waikato.

FONTERRA IS teaming up with the Government to help develop farmers in our key export markets.

FONTERRA AND the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT) plan to work together to help developing countries build viable dairy industries and increase dairy nutrition knowledge.

FONTERRA IS boosting its connectivity to farmers through the Farm Source programme which will support farmers and their farming businesses and bolster the cooperative's connection with rural communities in New Zealand.

Fonterra chief executive Theo Spierings says the co-op is investing $750 million to lift processing capability over the peak processing months.

Fonterra farmers will receive a record $8.50kgMS for milk supplied to the co-op last season.

Fonterra chairman John Wilson says there is further downside risk to its 2014-15 forecast payout.
