PETALING JAYA: Dutch Lady Milk Industries Bhd
is cautiously optimistic about its prospects this year, underpinned by the strength of its brands and the increasing recognition among Malaysians of the nutritional value of milk.
In a filing with Bursa Malaysia, the firm said it will continue to support local dairy farming, with the aim of improving both the quantity and quality of domestically produced fresh milk.
For its first quarter ended March 31, 2026, Dutch Lady’s net profit rose to RM29.96mil from RM25.03mil in the previous corresponding period, while revenue grew to RM397.84mil from RM373.4mil a year earlier.
It said revenue was historically the highest ever recognised in a single quarter, driven by higher sales in the core Dutch Lady liquid milk range, strong momentum in the out-of-home channel, and continued growth from product launches in 2025.
