Since its inception in 1940, Kowloon Dairy has been one of Hong Kong’s longest-running and most time-honoured dairy brands, and many Hongkongers have grown up enjoying their freshly made products. Over the last 85 years, the dairy company has stayed true to its values by continuously offering its customers fresh milk that undergoes optimum pasteurisation, which helps retain all its nutritional benefits while having a silky texture.
In their unwavering commitment to enforcing sustainability, the brand has sold milk in glass bottles since its founding year and remains as Hong Kong’s only brand that offers glass-bottled milk. Customers are encouraged to return their glass bottles so they can be sterilised and recycled, before they’re used to create environmentally-friendly building materials. Furthermore, the brand replaced its former 1.5l milk jug packaging with eco-friendly cartons to cut down on plastic consumption as of 2023.
Their dedication to innovation extends beyond sustainability; Kowloon Dairy was also the first local dairy company to introduce low-fat milk to Hong Kong back in 1986, followed by mochi-covered ice cream in 1989. Since then, its product range has expanded to include drinking yoghurt, soya milk, ice cream, and lactose-free fresh milk, catering to health-conscious and lactose-intolerant consumers. What’s more, the brand previously opened several pop-up stores to promote its brand and engage with the community, as well as launched a home delivery service in 2021, allowing customers to conveniently order their full range of dairy products or join Kowloon Dairy’s milk subscription plan to receive weekly deliveries to their doorstep with just a few clicks.
To commemorate its 85th-anniversary milestone, Kowloon Dairy has introduced two exclusive milk flavours for a limited time. Customers can choose between a smooth coconut-flavoured milk or a rich black sesame-flavoured milk, which offers a deep, nutty taste. These nostalgic flavours blend contemporary preferences with Asian flavours while honouring Kowloon Dairy’s 85-year legacy.
