Business Philosophy

The Milk Producers’ Organisation’s business philosophy is centred around the idea that dairy farming is not just a business, but a way of life. The South African dairy farmer is the most important stakeholder of the MPO, and the organisation is committed to honouring this tradition and providing dairy farmers with the necessary tools, resources, and support needed to farm in a sustainable manner.

We acknowledge the nutritional value of milk as a product and its contribution to our country with reference to economic growth and development,
job creation and food security.

All services and projects of the Milk Producers’ Organisation are aimed at providing a support structure to the South African dairy farmer to be sustainable and can be measured by the 5 Pillars of Sustainable Dairy Farming.

dairy production, while maintaining farm productivity.
