Arla Nigeria Marks 10 Years of Products, Growth, Sustainable Dairy Farming
Arla Nigeria, makers of Dano milk, has celebrated its 10th anniversary, marking a decade of delivering high-quality nourishing dairy products to Nigerian families while making strategic investments in the country’s dairy sector.
The company, a subsidiary of global dairy cooperative Arla Foods, commemorated the milestone on September 23, reflecting on its journey from a modest market entrant to one of Nigeria’s most trusted household names.
Over the years, Arla Nigeria has brought popular brands such as DANO, Lurpak, and others to millions of homes nationwide, steadily building consumer confidence through consistency and quality.
Speaking during the celebration, the company emphasized that its growth story has been anchored not only on product innovation but also on sustainability and local partnerships. Arla Nigeria has in recent years expanded its footprint in the agricultural value chain by investing in backward integration initiatives aimed at supporting local dairy farmers.
Through training, modern farming techniques, and access to markets, the company is working to strengthen Nigeria’s dairy sector and reduce dependence on imports.
According to the management, Arla’s 10-year journey in Nigeria highlights its commitment to “creating a sustainable dairy future” by combining global expertise with local relevance.
“We are proud to celebrate ten years of nourishing Nigerian families, empowering communities, and building a future where dairy farming thrives locally,” the company stated.
Industry observers note that Arla’s investment in Nigeria comes at a time when the government and private sector are intensifying efforts to boost food security and self-sufficiency in dairy production. Arla’s model of supporting smallholder farmers aligns with this vision, ensuring that both consumers and local producers benefit from the company’s presence.
As it steps into the next decade, Arla Nigeria pledged to continue offering nutritious products, expanding its community impact, and reinforcing its sustainability agenda.
With its steady growth, consumer trust, and contribution to the local economy, Arla Nigeria’s first 10 years mark not just a corporate milestone but also a significant chapter in the ongoing development of the country’s dairy industry.
