Glanbia Nutritionals

Our origins lie in Irish dairy co-ops and farming. We built our business on the love of pure, fresh food and nutrition, and that love continues to guide everything we do today. In fact our name, in Irish, literally means “pure food.”From our humble start, we’ve expanded our portfolio significantly, and now stand at the cutting-edge of the nutritionals industry. But we haven’t lost touch with our roots. We still do business in the same down-to-earth way, creating mutually beneficial, long-term relationships with our partners. Today we operate on a much bigger scale—we are the number one provider of whey based nutritional solutions globally, the number one producer of American-style cheese, and the number two producer of premixes in the world. We’ve earned our position at the forefront of the industry by continually investing not only in technology and insights, but also in people—our Glanbia colleagues as well as our customers and partners. We create resources and actively share information to help all of us achieve long-term success.Glanbia Nutritionals mixes our expertise in food science and the value chain, our intimate knowledge of our customers and their categories, and our dedication to the craft and art of nutrition in perfect measure. This is the recipe for superior partnerships and mutual success—a recipe that no one else offers.Better nutrition, built around you.
