Kinisla reflects the two defining aspects of the business: its people (farmers, farm families, innovators and employees) and the island of Ireland, especially the distinctive landscape of the southwest, where the business has deep roots.
It speaks to both the heritage of the business and its focus on future growth, anchored by unwavering commitment to quality, sustainability and innovation.
The new identity was unveiled today at an event in Listowel, attended by An Taoiseach Micheál Martin TD, Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine Martin Heydon TD, Minister for Children, Disability and Equality Norma Foley TD, public representatives, milk suppliers, employees and customers.
