The Granarolo Group, one of the top players in the Italian food and agriculture sector, includes two different and synergic parts: a cooperative of milk producers - Granlatte - operating in the agricultural sector and collecting the raw material, and a joint stock company - Granarolo S.p.A. - which processes and sells the milk produced at 15 facilities throughout Italy, 2 facilities in France, 1 in UK, 3 in Brazil and 1 in New Zealand. The Granarolo group is therefore the most important milk supply chain in Italy, with producer cooperatives as its major shareholders. It unites approximately 700 dairy farmers, an organisation of milk collection from farms with 70 vehicles, 720 vehicles for distribution delivering 850,000 metric tonnes a year and every day serving some 50,000 points of sale where almost 20 million families buy Granarolo products. The Granarolo Group’s mission is to export the tradition and know-how of Italian-made specialties (dairy and non-dairy). Indeed, the Group has diversified its portfolio in recent years. The Group also outsources quality control to international certification bodies, which are qualified and guaranteed by the International Food Standard (IFS), the British Retail Consortium (BRC) and the EU organic food certification (CCPB - Consortium for the Control of Organic Products). The production process has been ISO 9001 quality management certified since 2002. At 31/12/2017, the Granarolo Group employed more than 2,900 workers. 77.48% of the Group is owned by the Granlatte Consortium, 19.78% by Intesa Sanpaolo and the remaining 2.74% by Cooperlat. In 2017, the Group generated turnover of about one billion and three hundred million Euros. Visit our company website: http://www.granarologroup.com
