Valio is a brand leader and the biggest dairy business in Finland and a major player in the international dairy ingredients market.

Milk of the highest quality
Valio milk ranks among the cleanest in the world, and we have zero tolerance for antibiotic residue in milk. Finnish cows are already the healthiest in the European Union, which is why, for example, we use antibiotics very little compared to other EU countries. Valio will pay one cent extra per litre to entrepreneurs who have proven themselves committed to responsible dairy production.
The Northenmost milk in the European Union is produced in Finland, Lapland, above the Arctic Circle. Watch this amazing video from the Northest Valio dairy farm:
