Representing More than 50 Years of the Thai Dairy Industry

In 1962, Thailand’s Ministry of Agriculture and Co-Operatives General Surajit Charusreni realized that while Thai farmers were producing thousands of tons of raw milk every year, there was as yet no Thai company producing dairy products for the home market. In response, he negotiated with a group of Thai and Malaysianbusinessmen, and the Australian Dairy Product Board with the aim of establishing ‘The Thai Dairy Industry Co., Ltd. (TDI)’ – The first Thai dairy company.

The company mission has been to process local raw materials into dairy products that Thai people would love. Since that time, the now wholly Thai owned TDI has made substantial investments in dairy farming promotion, production technology, and product development, while simultaneously expanding its line of products and brands to suit the growing needs of consumers. Today, over 50 years since its establishment, the company still adheres to its founding precepts of offering the best-quality, nutritious dairy products to consumers in Thailand and overseas.

The Thai Dairy Industry Co., Ltd. has continually developed new and high-quality products that have become popular and much-loved throughout the years.
