In 2024, Glenilen Farm launched two no-added-sugar children’s yoghurts and exceeded its healthy product milestone by 100%.
In 2024, Glenilen Farm demonstrated a strong commitment to product health and nutrition by developing two new healthy products, doubling their output from the previous year and surpassing their milestone target by 100%. These innovations reflect the company’s proactive approach to meeting evolving consumer demands, particularly in the children’s health segment.
The newly launched products, two no-added-sugar yoghurts for children, were introduced in convenient pouch formats, aligning with both nutritional goals and modern lifestyle needs. These offerings cater to growing parental concerns around sugar intake and represent a strategic move to support healthier eating habits from an early age.
Looking ahead, Glenilen Farm has identified the children’s health market as a key area for growth. The company plans to expand its range of nutritious offerings, responding to increasing demand for wholesome, low-sugar options. This focus underscores Glenilen Farm’s broader mission to provide natural, minimally processed dairy products that support family wellbeing.
In addition to product development, Glenilen Farm is critically evaluating the role of fats in its product lines. With the zero-fat trend under renewed scrutiny, the company is investing in research to better understand the nutritional value of fats and how they contribute to a balanced diet. This evidence-based approach ensures that product innovation is grounded in sound science.
Supporting these efforts, a dedicated nutritionist has contributed to recipe development, led social media campaigns promoting healthy living, and participated in a public webinar. Notably, all proceeds from the webinar were donated to charity, reflecting Glenilen Farm’s values of community engagement and social responsibility.
