The a2 Milk Company is a New Zealand-based public dairy company that specializes in the production and marketing of A2 protein-only milk and related products. The company was founded in 2000 by Corran McLachlan, a scientist who discovered that proteins in milk could be categorized into A1 and A2 types. The a2 Milk Company focuses on producing milk that contains only the A2 type of beta-casein protein, which is believed to be easier to digest for some people.
History
The a2 Milk Company was established in 2000 by Corran McLachlan and Howard Paterson. The company initially focused on the New Zealand market but has since expanded its operations internationally, including in Australia, China, and the United States. The company was listed on the New Zealand Exchange (NZX) in 2004 and later on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) in 2015.
