Farm Fresh Group Malaysia
Farm Fresh is the largest integrated dairy company in Malaysia, owning and operating four dairy farms in the Asian country and marketing its product under the name Farm Fresh Milk, the number one fresh milk brand in Malaysia. Farm Fresh became the first dairy company in Asia to obtain the internationally recognized Certified Humane® certification, aligning with the company’s commitment to animal welfare and sustainability.
Certified Humane® is a globally recognized animal welfare certification program overseen by Humane Farm Animal Care, the leading nonprofit certification organization dedicated to improving the lives of farm animals in food production. The program’s goal is to provide a dignified life for farm animals, responding to consumers’ demands for more compassionate and responsible practices toward these animals.
“At Farm Fresh, we have always strongly believed that when cows are happy, healthy, and comfortable, they, in turn, provide us with delicious and nutritious milk, just as nature intended. We focus heavily on the health and welfare of our cows. We operate all our farms with the aim of ensuring the well-being of our animals and spare no effort in making sure their experience with us is the best it can be.”
“We make sure all our cows receive a varied, tasty, and nutritious diet, with a predominant composition of fresh, well-matured pasture grown right on the farm in healthy soil, naturally fertilized with our own organic manure and irrigated with our natural waters. Besides pasture, our cows also consume various types of grains, vitamins, and minerals to ensure their diet is of the highest quality.”
“We have also invested in high-quality infrastructure for milking and housing facilities. Additionally, we provide a cooling system for our cows, as heat stress is common in the region where we operate, which is why we provide ample ventilation and use a sprinkler system to achieve efficient evaporative cooling.”
“Our dairy genetics program for the tropics, featuring the Australian Friesian Sahiwal breed, along with our breeding strategies, allows us to crossbreed and raise cows that are more resilient and suffer less in tropical and humid environments. Effective herd health management is a priority, and we believe that prevention is better than cure. That’s why we perform routine check-ups and implement preventive strategies to ensure that the animals under our care are always healthy and happy. All of our farms have a pedicure unit to carefully treat our cows’ hooves, trimming them at least twice a year.”
“At Farm Fresh, we have always been committed to the belief that compassionate animal production is not a luxury but a necessity. It is a responsibility to the animals under our care, to whom we owe the best possible treatment with affection, love, care, and in an environment where they can live happily and healthily.”
