Pure Dairy is set to make waves in the Australian dairy industry with the upcoming launch of its cutting-edge manufacturing and cheese processing facility in April 2025. The new 13,000-square-metre facility, located in the industrial heart of Dandenong South, signifies a pivotal step forward in modernizing the sector.
The facility, nearing completion, is designed to house advanced, fully automated processing equipment, representing technology yet unseen in the Australian market. The structural work has been completed, and the installation of the facility's highly automated systems is well underway.
“We’re incredibly excited to see this come together,” stated Adrian Josephson, Executive Chairman of Pure Dairy. “For over a decade, we’ve worked closely with clients globally, gaining insights to enhance every aspect of dairy. This facility is the physical expression of that expertise—a substantial asset for the entire Australian dairy industry.”
With the structural framework now in place, the facility has reached several key milestones, including the ongoing fit-out of internal areas, such as a dedicated test kitchen intended to drive dairy innovation. This feature, along with the installation of sophisticated automated systems, is expected to boost operational efficiency while ensuring consistent quality across Pure Dairy’s product lines.
In alignment with contemporary manufacturing trends, the new facility is equipped with energy- and water-saving technologies, showcasing Pure Dairy’s commitment to environmental sustainability. The technology embedded within the facility is designed to minimize resource consumption, setting a benchmark for responsible production practices in the industry.
The forthcoming stages of the project will involve final equipment installations and rigorous operational tests to guarantee that all systems align with stringent quality and efficiency standards. This phased approach will support a gradual ramp-up in production capacity, ensuring a smooth transition to full-scale operations.
Upon completion, the Dandenong South facility will produce a broad array of premium dairy products, from traditional offerings like mozzarella and cheddar to plant-based alternatives, catering to both domestic and international markets. This expansion is anticipated to create over 100 jobs, driving economic growth in Melbourne’s southeastern region and enhancing Pure Dairy’s network of suppliers and manufacturing partners.
“Pure Dairy is committed to championing local produce and tapping into Australia’s potential to lead in dairy exports,” Josephson added. “This facility not only reinforces our dedication to the local community but also strengthens Australia’s position as a global leader in high-quality dairy production. We’re eager to contribute meaningfully to the region’s economy and elevate Australian dairy on the world stage.”
With the launch scheduled for April 2025, Pure Dairy’s Dandenong South facility stands poised to redefine the landscape of Australian dairy manufacturing, setting a new standard for efficiency, sustainability, and product quality.
