Netherlands ·
Lely is a Dutch family-owned company focused on automating the dairy farm, with its campus in Maassluis in the Netherlands. Its solutions cover milking, feeding, barn cleaning and farm data management. Sales and support reach farmers through Lely Centers, local service points that install the equipment and keep it running.
A milking robot such as the Astronaut lets each cow choose when to be milked, while automated feeding with Vector and Juno keeps fresh feed in front of the herd around the clock. Discovery cleaning robots keep barn floors clean, and Lely Horizon brings data from all these systems together for decisions on health and production. Adopting robots changes the working routine of the whole farm, not just the milking.

## Size of the business

Lely reported turnover of EUR 1.014 billion for 2025, announced on 5 February 2026.

### What does the company offer?

Lely offers Astronaut milking robots, Vector automated feeding, Juno, cleaning robots and the Lely Horizon farm management platform, with support through Lely Centers.

### How should a buyer make contact?

Lely sells and services its equipment through local Lely Centers, and the company website lists the centre for each region. Enquiries are handled fastest when they describe the herd, the barn and the timing required.
