Fonterra is at a crossroads, with its proposed sale of Mainland Group raising big questions for its farmer suppliers, the wider dairy sector, and everyday consumers.
In this episode, we’re joined by Matt Montgomerie, a senior analyst at Forsyth Barr, to unpack what’s really going on. Matt explains Fonterra’s financial position, the rationale behind the Mainland sale, and what it could mean for farmers and the sector. He also shares insights into the co-op’s long-term strategy and global dairy trends.
On another topic, he also offers some advice on how farmers can build wealth beyond the farm gate. Just a reminder that nothing in this podcast should be taken as personal financial advice. It’s general in nature. If you’re seeking advice specific to your situation, please talk to a registered financial adviser.
