Made in Cornwall, enjoyed nationally
Ehrmann Cornish Dairy is home to two well-loved names in dairy: the Bavarian-founded, family-owned Ehrmann, and the family-founded Trewithen Dairy, founded by the Clarke family in 1976, with the original dairy still very much our home today. By combining German scale and expertise with Cornish quality and care, we’re creating something unique in the UK dairy sector.

Ehrmann Today
With a 200-strong Cornish-based workforce, we are proud to work at Ehrmann Cornish Dairy to produce high-quality dairy products. We represent the best of the county, both in people and the products we make. It’s a family, and we share those values in supporting one another to achieve success.
With a strong heritage of innovation and a deep commitment to quality, we work closely with over 40 local Cornish farmers to source the freshest milk for our clotted cream, yoghurts, butter, and high-protein desserts. We produce great-tasting, high-quality products loved by many in Cornwall, and are starting to make waves across the UK through increased distribution in major supermarkets.
Our ongoing investment in infrastructure, people, and partnerships is all about supporting a vibrant, future-focused UK dairy industry rooted in provenance, built on trust, and proud of where we come from.

100 Years of History
In 1920, the dairy master Alois Ehrmann (Senior) founded a dairy as a one-man operation and leased another one five years later. The foundation stone was laid for the expansion course that continues to this day. In 1960, Alois Ehrmann (Senior) hands over the management of the company to his two sons, Anton and Alois (Junior), and makes them equal partners. In 2006, Christian Ehrmann takes over the management of the family dairy in its third generation as the new CEO.
