Hmmm, after the buy out of Wiseman I had thought that ATM had price ranged tested the market in the UK, had settled on a long term retail price, and now it was all about growing market share at that settled price from the twenty a2 converted farms.
But, today the UK retail price is back up to the upper ranged limit, perhaps a nice sign of forward confidence.
The a2 price is £1.99 per 2.0L, compared with say Tesco (home brand) £1.00 per 2.27L (4 pints)

a2 Whole Milk 2.0L (99.5p/L)
Attachment 6379
Tesco Whole Milk 2.27L (44p/L)
Normal milk in tesco supermarket UK apx .90 nz cents per litre
Normal milk in NZ supermarkets apx 2 dollars 50 a litre
Why when we have all the cows do we have to pay nearly three times as much for milk than UK consumers.
It was done here too, Fonterra still add it as far as I’m aware, happy to be corrected.

New Zealand fresh milk prices are high because we are paying an equivalent international milk powder market price. Milk here is value added and exported, why would any company sell it in local supermarkets at all unless they could get a similar export level gross margin.
Edit: Permeate contains lactose and a1 protien, so you get a nice double dose in your cheap milk.
I think I remember from frontera that milk prices are set by what the market in nz will accept not international prices. Basically they make lots because people will still buy. Sometimes they do a pr line like we will reduce our price but not often. Then of course what do supermarkets make as a mark up, they may pay less but keep price the same.
In New Zealand the milk price is controlled by Fonterra - if the supermarkets don't like it, they don't get it.
Utter rubbish - there is significant retail margin in milk in NZ, this is the reason ATM will find it difficult to crack the NZ market.

Wow, this article is super negative on milk permeate - jesus "snot like substance" blinkin heck its only liquid form milk sugars + minerals which are extracted in production of whey protein concentrate (WPC) or Milk Protein Concentrate (MPC). Better than them dumping it.
Off topic I know but interesting to see such a one sided perspective.
And NT, if they ever get to a point where they have maxed out the export market for a2 infant formula, and let's face it that's probably a few if not many years away, the next product of the rank with the next highest gross margin is very probably a2 milk processed into a2 whey protein concentrate (WPC) for export.
Imagine that market of really quite health focused gym going folk wanting a2 rather than a1 WPC.
Here comes the big buying at 58 cents . $1.00 by XmasXmas
Significant volume* at a higher price today. Isn't that usually the point TAers get excited about?
You might need to sell some of those BRM and buy ATM instead Winner.
* Still no SSH from either side
Go back a few posts ....Hoop has already shot me for being stupid but I happy with this going to 60 cents and then 70 cents and then overshooting my value of 69 cents to 80 cents and then 90 cents and maybe even a buck sooner than later if the big takeover happens
Whats this BRM you mention
