Business Profile

Malta Dairy Products Ltd is the leading processing dairy plant in Malta, processing packing, and distributing products made with fresh milk originating solely from the Maltese Islands under the brand “Benna”. The milk is collected daily from around 79 farmers in Malta and Gozo and processed at M.D.P.'s facility in Ħamrun. Benna ensures that fresh milk and dairy products reach consumers across Malta every morning with a large workforce of full-time employees and a distribution network of self-employed distributors.

Benna’s commitment to quality is further underscored by its reliance on the island’s approximately 6,000 dairy cows, fed with forage derived from 50% of Malta’s remaining arable land. This local focus supports Maltese agriculture and guarantees that every Benna product is as fresh and wholesome as the day it was produced.

Over the years, Benna has continued to innovate and diversify its product offerings. The standard range of whole, 2.5%, skimmed, and lactose-free milk has been a staple since 2010.

The yoghurt line has expanded to include various flavours in 150g cups, from indulgent dessert options to lactose-free varieties. Fresh cream is available in regular 250ml or 500ml sizes, and mozzarella comes in both fresh and pizza varieties, with portions ranging from 150g mini portions to 1kg packs for professional use.

Benna also offers a variety of traditional cheeselets (ġbejniet), including semi-dried cheeselets (Ġbejna Moxxa) and fresh Irkotta, which includes a lactose-free version available in tubs or by weight at deli counters. Benna butter, available in salted, unsalted and lactose-free unsalted versions, remains popular among consumers.

From its humble beginnings in 1938 to its current status as Malta’s leading dairy brand, Benna continues to honour its heritage while embracing innovation, ensuring that the people of Malta enjoy the best dairy products every day.
