Maui Milk Appoints Sheep Farmer Edward as New CEO

Edward's unique combination of operational experience and executive management skills is expected to position the company to tackle the increasing demand for sheep milk that surpasses current supply capabilities.

• Edward currently operates his own dairy sheep enterprise, contributing to his in-depth understanding of the challenges Maui Milk’s partners face.
• His appointment is timely as demand for Maui's products now outstrips supply, necessitating new supply chain partnerships.
• Edward intends to develop the Southern Cross Dairy Sheep Technology genetics programme further, leveraging it as a competitive advantage in New Zealand’s growing sheep milk industry.

Edward aims to enhance production and sales partnerships, focusing on innovative product developments to capture the expanding interest in sheep milk alternatives. This approach seeks to establish sheep milk as a premium dairy product, differentiating it from traditional cow milk, which could ensure higher profit margins. Edward expressed confidence that both Maui Milk and the sheep milk industry are poised for significant growth, underlining the transition of sheep milk from a niche market to a mainstream dairy sector.
