The Granarolo Group, one of the leading operators in the Italian agro-food industry, comprises two different synergistic companies: a cooperative of milk producers, Granlatte, which operates in the agricultural sector and collects the raw materials, and a public limited company, Granarolo S.p.A., which processes and commercialises the finished product and boasts 14 production sites in Italy, two in France, three in Brazil, one in New Zealand and one in the United Kingdom. The Granarolo Group is the most important Italian milk supply chain to directly represent its associated producers as part of a cooperative. The Group’s mission outside Italy is to export the tradition of Italian products, including non-dairy products. In fact, Granarolo has diversified its portfolio in recent years. The Group now welcomes external controls carried out by international certification bodies certified by the International Food Standards (IFS), the British Retail Consortium (BRC) and the EU Organic Food Certification (CCPB). Since 2002 the production process has been certified according to the ISO 9001 quality management systems standard.
