Nourishing Natural Goodness.
100% pure, premium New Zealand milk
Pāmu is New Zealand’s largest farmer - 100% state owned by the New Zealand government and providers of nourishing New Zealand natural dairy goodness. With one million acres of land, our farming footprint covers six times the area of Singapore.
Our farms are in the lush green lowlands and wide-open high country of New Zealand, stretching from the far north to the deep south. The air is crisp and fresh, the water pure and the land unspoiled. On these landscapes, our animals roam, feed and thrive freely on a grass-fed diet.
Pāmu is passionate and committed to sustainable production of healthy and nutritious products and are leading the way in sustainable farming to protect and enhance the environment. Innovation flourishes on our farms as we deliver to the world premium specialist milk products – the finest, naturally.
We’ve managed the land on behalf of New Zealanders for over 135 years.
The beginning of the organisation that would become Pāmu began in 1886. The Department of Lands and Survey was made responsible for establishing, leasing and running farms for the New Zealand Government, providing capital and leadership to establish intensive agriculture.
Our greatest asset has always been the land, the grass, the rain and the waterways that produce world-class meat, dairy and fibre – and sustains life in New Zealand. That’s what allowed our farmers to become world-class agricultural producers following the first ‘green revolution’ of the 1940s and 50s.
In 1987, the Department’s farm assets were transferred to Landcorp. As a state-owned enterprise, we’re required to run as a profitable and efficient business while exhibiting a sense of social responsibility.
In 2015, we rebranded to Pāmu, which in te reo Māori means ‘to farm’. Further to its literal translation, the brand also reflects the Māori concept of guardianship of the environment.
