Milk producing animals have been domesticated for thousands of years. With industrialisation and urbanisation, the supply of milk became a commercial industry. While most countries produce their own milk products, the structure of the dairy industry varies in different parts of the world.
Australia is a small producer of milk but is the world???s third largest dairy exporter, behind EU and New Zealand, as 50% of Australian production is exported. Australia produces a range of dairy products including milk, milk powder, yoghurt, butter and cheese. As an Australian company for more than 20 years, World Wide Exporters P/L has established long-lasting relationships with major dairy producers around the country so we can satisfy the needs of our existing and new customers. Our excellent reputation allows us to source dairy products through Global dairy auction, trusted and transparent platform for trading large volume dairy ingredients from around the world.

Milk is separated in bulk into cream and skim milk. The cream is processed to produce various consumer products, depending on its thickness, its suitability for culinary uses and consumer demand, which differs from place to place and country to country. Some milk is dried and powdered, some is condensed (by evaporation) mixed with varying amounts of sugar and canned.
Most cream from New Zealand and Australian factories is made into butter. This is done by churning the cream until the fat globules coagulate and form a monolithic mass. This butter mass is washed and, sometimes, salted to improve keeping qualities. The butter is packaged (25 to 50 kg boxes) and chilled for storage and sale. At a later stage these packages are broken down into home-consumption sized packs
Australia produces an array of different milk powders. These powders include wholemilk powder (WMP) and skim milk powder (SMP). The export market consumes over 80% of Australia???s milk powder production.
Both WMP and SMP are ideal for reconstitution into liquid milk, these powders have the same levels of protein and carbohydrate as fresh milk and are used in the manufacture of food products.
Cheese is another product made from milk. Whole milk is reacted to form curds that can be compressed, processed and stored to form cheese. Traditionally made hard cheeses, and soft ripened cheeses may create less reaction than the equivalent amount of milk because of the processes involved. Cheese is a major product of the Australian dairy industry, utilising more than a third of Australian milk. The long-term trend away from cheddar cheeses and toward non-cheddar varieties is evident in Australia???s cheese exports, with the non-cheddar share of total export sales steadily increasing from around 60% two decades ago, to more than 75% in recent years.
Whey is the residual product after milk is processed. Traditionally whey was disposed of; however recognition of the value of whey???s components has seen the demand increase significantly. Whey powders (WP) and its proteins are nutritious and useful in food production.
Whey powder is typically found in ice-cream, chocolate flavouring, beverages and animal feed. Whey proteins are used in the production of foods such as confectionary, biscuits and protein drinks. It is also used in the production of cosmetics, soaps and detergents.
