Green pastures dotted with dairy cows are familiar sights for most Kiwis, but are less common in other parts of the world.
“The virtual dairy farm experience was an exciting and innovative way to bring to life the New Zealand story of lush pastures, cared-for cows and finest dairy,” says Hamish Gowans, Fonterra General Manager of NZMP Ingredients for South East Asia.
“With their headsets projecting 3-D images of a typical dairy farm environment, complete with sounds, delegates were able to get a sense of the origins of our dairy ingredients – a new experience for many,” says Gowans, in a statement.
NZMP, the dairy ingredients brand of Fonterra, was a sponsor of this year’s conference. The conference brings together global food industry representatives to discuss growing opportunities in the milk protein market.
“Fonterra is well known for its whole milk and skim milk powders, but companies may not be as familiar with our higher-value, more advanced ingredient solutions,” says Gowans. “The conference provided us with a great opportunity to speak to potential customers about our wide range of high-value ingredients.”
