Meadow Foods is a major dairy group in the UK. The company recently launched its Dairy-Free Greek Yogurt made from a blend of plant-based ingredients. UK's leading dairy supplier invested in a new plant-based manufacturing facility where the Greek-style yogurt is produced.
The dairy-free product is made from a blend of oats, coconut, and rice. Meadow Foods ensures that its product remains uncontaminated by animal dairy products by committing to a fully segregated facility. Moreover, the yogurt comes in a PET tub made from 100% recycled plastic. Consumers can purchase the dairy-free Greek yogurt nationwide at Waitrose, Tesco, Sainsbury's, and Asda. Meadow Foods has plans to expand its plant-based dairy range to include drinks, sour cream, soft cheese, milk, custard, and more.
