The Emmi Group is pursuing its targeted internationalisation strategy with a focus on must-win markets and strategic niches.
Diversity and local roots characterise the Emmi Group’s international portfolio, which is being strategically developed in line with global megatrends and adapted to local needs. A decentralised business model enables us to ensure a balanced, geographical footprint, resilience and sustainable profitable growth.
With Emmi Caffè Latte we are driving forward the ready-to-drink coffee segment throughout Europe. Our patented all-natural recipe, our in-house roasting expertise and our research and development expertise are setting standards in the field. The new international “Be ready” campaign underscores the strong brand message and consolidates the leading position in the European ready-to-drink segment.
We earn outstanding ratings year after year on the back of our expertise, our portfolio of global brands and our local artisanal specialty cheeses. These include 39 awards at the World Cheese Awards 2025, emphasising our commitment to quality. Brands such as Athenos (the number 1 feta brand in the USA), Meyenberg (the number 1 goat’s milk brand in the USA) and Kaltbach (winner of “Super Gold” at the World Cheese Awards 2025) ensure differentiation and value creation.
Our innovative and iconic premium brands and product concepts enable rapid international scaling: high-quality protein and double-zero products, lactose-free products and meal replacement drinks cater to the growing demand for convenience and healthy eating. Verde Campo in Brazil addresses health trends with high-quality whey products including lactose-free varieties, while Kaiku in Spain successfully positions protein coffee and a strong kefir portfolio for digestion and gut health. In Chile, Quillayes Surlat is expanding its high-protein range with product concepts focussed on a minimal number of natural ingredients.
Our decentralised business model combines local research and development expertise with in-depth market knowledge. This results in innovations that take account of cultural preferences while at the same time being globally scalable. Markets provide strong platforms for structured growth and resilience. With the fast-growing niches of ready-to-drink coffee, cheese specialties and premium desserts, we are strengthening our leading market positions and sustainable value creation.
