Part of the Freedom Foods Group, Pactum Dairy Group (PDG) has recently commissioned a new $45 million UHT dairy beverage facility in Shepparton for the manufacture of high value-added dairy beverages for key customers in China and south-east Asia.

Under the strategic supply agreement, PDG will provide Bright Dairy with long-term supply of value-added milk products in UHT packaging formats.
