The a2 Milk Company

At The a2 Milk Company, we’re on a mission to bring people delicious, nutritious and pure a2 Milk®.

The a2 Milk Corporation was founded in 2000 after scientific research showed that proteins in milk affect people differently. Ordinary cows’ milk consumed contains a mix of two main types of beta-casein proteins, A1 and A2 protein. Published research suggests that a2 Milk® may help avoid stomach discomfort in some people.  That’s because a2 Milk® contains only the A2 protein type and no A1. Since its foundation the company has flourished in its home market Australia, where it is the leading premium milk brand. The a2 Milk Company™ has come to the US market as part of a growing global footprint.  We’re working to satisfy the desire of millions of US milk lovers for real, natural milk that’s delicious and easier on digestion because it contains only A2 protein. Our mission: To pioneer the scientific understanding of a2 Milk® so we can bring more people the delicious and nutritional goodness that only comes from real and natural dairy milk.
