Every journey is different, and what matters to you might not matter to other mums and dads. That's why we want to share with you the full story of what goes into making AnmumTM Materna, Lacta, Essential and Essential Gold, from the way we undertake research and our expertise in making nutritional products for mums and growing children, to our passion for nutrition and proud heritage.

Step 1. We understand mums and dads.

Many of the people behind our brands are also parents. Our nutritionists around the world are constantly learning and researching new ways to support the essential nutrients of our mums and children. We have a huge commitment to support them stronger and smarter.

Step 2. We start with a trusted source of goodness.

The high quality of our products begins with the 10,500 farming families that provide the fresh milk used in our products. These farmers employ some of the world’s most advanced pasture-based farming systems. The unique New Zealand environment means their cows are able to graze naturally on grass, year round. This helps them stay healthy and produce high-quality milk.

Step 3. We create our products with experienced experts.

We're passionate about creating nutritional products that helps to provide essential nutrients for mums and children. Our expertise is built on over 50 years of experience making maternal, lactating, and growing up milk. We work with nutritionists to research and provide essential nutrients for mums and children.

Step 4. From our farms to your home.

We know how important nutritional products are to our mums and children, so we take the greatest care with our ingredients and products from our farms to you. We employ advanced quality and safety systems, stringent processes and final product testing. Products leaving New Zealand receive export certification from the Ministry of Primary Industries as an official assurance that the products meet certain standards and requirements.

Step 5. Safe and protected at every step.

During your journey, we ensure the integrity of our products. Fonterra conducts over 60,000 safety and quality tests every year, so you know the products you buy are safe and of a high quality. We do all this so that we know we are providing essential nutrients to mums and children.
