 Branded business boosts Arla Foods UK
Sales at Arla Foods UK reached £1.7 billion in the 18 months to 30 September, and while this was inevitably higher than the previous year due to a change in the company’s reporting date following the merger with Express Dairies, it was also built on a solid performance from branded products.
But Arla has the capacity to innovate and experiment, with some of the most modern and efficient dairies in the UK under its control, and indeed it has already been at the forefront of pushing the British dairy market into new areas.
The company’s parent, Scandinavian Arla Foods amba, reported a drop in profits in 2004 as a result of lost export subsidies related to CAP reform, and the next few years could see a major shift towards branded dairy products by companies which have traditionally focused on the broader dairy sector.

 Arla Foods upbeat on EU feta ruling
Nielsen said Arla was now the leading feta supplier to Scandinavia and Holland and that demand for feta in Europe was growing, thanks to its use as an inspiration for new recipes and the convenience factor of putting ready-made feta cubes into salads.
Arla has also worked hard to develop its Three Cows feta brand in the Middle East, which is not bound by the EU ruling; although feta was included in a list of 41 products the EU wants to get global protection for at the up-coming World Trade Organisation meeting in Hong Kong.
Nielsen said Arla's biggest worry was that the feta ruling may spark a series of copy-cat cases, where a flurry of different local producers could apply to get PDO's on their products.
