Jersey Dairy exists to provide a sustainable and reliable supply of nutritious fresh Jersey milk to islanders. In the uncertain times brought upon us all due to the Coronavirus, we’d like to reassure our consumers and our trade customers of the actions we are taking to ensure that fresh milk continues to be available every day.

Over the last few weeks, we have put plans in place to ensure that we maintain operational resilience on our farms and at the dairy in Trinity to provide Jersey consumers with the high quality and nutritious fresh milk they expect and need.

Our fresh milk, UHT milk, yogurt, cheese, butter, ice cream and cream continue to be in production and daily deliveries to all retail stores remain unchanged.

Our staff and farmers have responded superbly to the challenges Covid-19 has presented us adopting flexible new processes and working in a spirit of solidarity and co-operation. They fully understand the importance of the continued supply of fresh milk to the local market and the maintenance of its quality.

Jersey milk has always been one of the best tasting and most nutritious in the world and that continues to be the case. Science consistency tells us that a dairy-based diet helps to improve nutritional health, enhance immune resistance and provide important nutritional support to combat diseases. Milk and other dairy products play an important part in a balanced diet for people of all ages. 

More information of Jersey Dairy’s products is available at www.jerseydairy.com, including recipe and serving ideas and nutritional value.

Jersey Dairy would like to thank all our customers for their continued support and to wish them all the very best in these difficult times.
