Woodlands Dairy and Fairfield Dairy Celebrate Top Honours at SA Dairy Championships

Woodlands Dairy is proud to share some exciting news following the recent SA Dairy Championships, where a number of products manufactured at our Woodlands Dairy and Fairfield Dairy facilities were recognised with top awards.

Our Woodlands Dairy and Fairfield Dairy facilities produce a wide range of dairy products not only under our own brands, but also for trusted partners such as SPAR and Woolworths. These latest awards are a strong endorsement of the standards, care and consistency applied across all brands produced at our facilities.

Among the accolades were several Qualité Awards, regarded as one of the highest honours in the dairy industry, alongside multiple SA Champion titles. The awards highlight the depth and versatility of our manufacturing capability.

Award Highlights Include:

  • Qualité 1st Prize: First Choice High Protein Recovery Chocolate
  • Qualité 1st Prize: SPAR Double Cream Yoghurt Granadilla Cheesecake
  • Qualité 2nd Prize: Woolworths Organic Fresh Full Cream Milk

In addition, the following products were named 1st Place SA Champions:

  • First Choice Pouring Cream
  • First Choice UHT Full Cream Milk
  • First Choice Medium Cream Maas

Partner brand 1st Place SA Champions, manufactured at the Fairfield Dairy facility, included:

  • Woolworths Organic Fat Free Smooth Cottage Cheese (Plain)
  • Woolworths Ayrshire Double Thick Cream
  • SPAR Kefir Full Cream Yeast Free (Mango, Orange, Lemon, Chilli & Turmeric)
  • SPAR Fat Free Peach Apricot Yoghurt

The awards reinforce the business’s ongoing focus on quality without compromise, with the same level of passion, expertise and attention to detail applied across both its First Choice products and those manufactured for partner brands.

Above all, this achievement belongs to the teams at Woodlands Dairy and Fairfield Dairy. Their dedication, consistency and pride in their craft continue to position the business as a trusted partner and leader within the South African dairy industry.
