The co-operative, which is owned by its dairy farmer suppliers, reported sales revenue of A$2.367bn ($2.38bn, €1.85bn) for the year ended 30 June 2012 – a 3.5% increase on the A$2.287bn posted in the previous year.
Net profit for the 12 month period hit A$37.7m ($39.2m, €30.5m) – a 1.1% increase on the A$37.3m reported last year.
Export sales were up 4% for the period, with demand from China, South East Asia and the Middle East accounting for the majority.
According to the firm, it “performed strongly against a backdrop of falling dairy commodity prices in the latter half of 2011-12 and a high Australian dollar.”
