Make sure you pick up Welsh yogurt next time your in the supermarket

Last year marked a proud milestone for Llaeth y Llan as the family business celebrated its 40th anniversary, four decades of producing exceptional dairy with deep roots in the Welsh countryside.

Llaeth y Llan celebrates their 40th year.

From its beginnings as a small local venture to becoming one of Wales’ most respected dairy brands, Llaeth y Llan has remained true to its founding values, quality, locality and pride in Welsh produce.

At the heart of the business is a simple but powerful commitment, milk that travels no more than seven miles from farm to dairy. By working closely with trusted local farmers, Llaeth y Llan ensures outstanding freshness, full traceability, and the highest standards of animal welfare. This close-to-home approach not only guarantees superior quality but also supports the Welsh farming community.

A Business Built on People and Values

“We’re incredibly proud to employ over 60 people,” says Owain Roberts, Director of Llaeth y Llan. “What really makes the difference is our team. We’ve built a fantastic group of people who share strong values, a real commitment to quality, teamwork and doing things the right way. Without them, we simply wouldn’t be where we are today.”

That sense of shared purpose runs through every part of the business, from production to innovation and underpins the consistent quality that customers have come to trust.

A Range Built on Quality and Innovation

Llaeth y Llan offers a diverse and appealing range of products designed to suit every taste and lifestyle. Their popular 125g yogurt pots come in an impressive selection of 12 fruity flavours, perfect for a convenient and flavour-packed snack, while the larger 450g range features 7 delicious flavours ideal for sharing or everyday enjoyment. Alongside these classic favourites, Llaeth y Llan has expanded its offering to include protein yogurts in Strawberry, Blueberry and Salted Caramel flavour.

A particular highlight is the Llaeth y Llan kefir range, which has proudly won a Great Taste Award, recognising both its flavour and quality. Naturally fermented and refreshingly smooth, kefir has grown in popularity as more consumers look to support their wellbeing through everyday foods.

The Benefits of Kefir

Kefir is widely recognised for its gut-friendly properties. Rich in live cultures, it contains a diverse range of beneficial bacteria that help support a healthy digestive system and gut balance, which plays an important role in overall health.

The natural fermentation process also makes kefir easier to digest for many people, as it helps break down lactose. In addition, kefir provides protein, calcium, and essential nutrients that contribute to bone health and immune support. Light, versatile, and refreshing, it can be enjoyed on its own, added to smoothies, or used as a nutritious alternative to yogurt.

Proudly made in Wales, Llaeth y Llan kefir is available in Tesco, Morrisons, and Lidl stores across Wales, making award-winning Welsh dairy accessible to households across the country.

Fuel for Modern Lifestyles

Another standout product is the Llaeth y Llan protein yogurt, created for those looking for both nutrition and great taste. With an impressive 22g of protein per pot and available in three delicious flavours, it’s ideal for active lifestyles, post-exercise recovery, or as a satisfying snack that keeps you fuller for longer. Thick, creamy and indulgent, it demonstrates that functional food can still deliver on flavour.

Gratitude to Loyal Customers

“We wouldn’t be celebrating 40 years without the loyalty of our customers,” adds Owain. “So many people in Wales have grown up with Llaeth y Llan, and we’re incredibly grateful to everyone who has chosen our products over the years. Their support has allowed us to grow while staying true to who we are.”
