NZ Made Milk Products NO Link with China

Currently I have received few enquiries from consumers, whether New Zealand made products are also effected by the toxic milk scare in China.

This is because the effected Chinese dairy company, SanLu, is actually 43% owned by Fonterra, NZ.

However, there are no connection between their productions. Any products produced by Fonterra in New Zealand, are totally safe.

As for consumers, I would suggest to make sure any related milk products, are 100% Made or Produced in New Zealand.

At this point, we are not sure what products been effected, but I would suggest try not to get any milk related products from China.

*Green Nutrition's products are 100% Made, and Packed in New Zealand*

Who is Fonterra?
Fonterra Co-operative Group Ltd (NZX: FCGHA), generally known as Fonterra, is New Zealand's largest company by turnover. A cooperative, Fonterra is owned by approximately 11,000 farmers throughout the country. It is the sixth-largest dairy company in the world, and the most influential by far when it comes to determining international dairy trade, handling over a third of all international dairy trade.

Notice of voluntary product recall - ANMUM Materna

*Media released from Fonterra NZ website
Fonterra China today announced a voluntary recall of one batch of prenatal milk sold in China under the ANMUM Materna brand name.


This particular batch had been manufactured and distributed under licence by San Lu using what we believe to be contaminated local raw milk.


A company spokesman said this issue applies to the one batch of ANMUM Materna which was distributed in China (excluding Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan). None of the batch in question was exported out of China.


All other ANMUM and ANLENE products in the market have been produced using only 100% fully imported milk from New Zealand and are free from any possibility of contamination with melamine from locally sourced milk, and adhere to the strictest New Zealand and international standards.


Fonterra China said the stock was being recalled because consumer safety was the company’s utmost concern.
