Ireland · Farmer-owned co-operative
Tirlán is an Irish co-operative wholly owned by farmers, and it works closely with its farmer members. The business is organised into three areas: Agribusiness, Consumer and Ingredients. Agribusiness buys milk and grain from farms and supplies them with farm inputs, Consumer sells branded dairy products such as Avonmore, MyMilkman and Truly Grass Fed, and Ingredients, through Tirlán Ingredients, manufactures dairy ingredients for food companies. Farm supplies are sold under the Tirlán FarmLife name.
Tirlán shows how one business can link farms, local agricultural purchasing and international food markets. A farmer may sell milk and grain to Tirlán and buy feed, fertiliser and other supplies from it, while the same milk ends up in Irish shops or in ingredients sold to food manufacturers abroad. For raw material contracts, the main elements are the quality specification, collection logistics and the pricing mechanism, while industrial ingredient orders run separately through the Ingredients business.
Size of the business
Tirlán reported revenue of EUR 2.94 billion for 2025, across its Agribusiness, Consumer and Ingredients businesses.
What does the company offer?

How should a buyer make contact?
