Valio

Valio manufactures advanced dairy and plant-based food solutions for the global food industry. It leverages scientific expertise and Finnish ingredients to develop innovative, premium offerings. The company’s technical approach emphasizes ingredient knowledge and science-backed innovations, enhancing taste, nutrition, and performance in applications like digestive wellness, high protein, sugar reduction, and specialized OEM services.

Valio originated in 1905 as a cooperative, founded by 17 Finnish dairy farmers. Their insight was to unite these farmers, enabling the collective export of high-quality Finnish butter globally. This cooperative structure provided producers stronger economic leverage and ensured consistent product quality.

Valio serves food manufacturers in dairy, beverages, bakery, confectionery, ice cream, and infant nutrition. Its vision drives continuous dairy innovation, aiming to shape food and nutrition’s future. Valio also targets a zero carbon footprint for milk by 2035, underscoring its commitment to sustainable dairy production.
