About Us

History that stretches back to the 1890s
A Long History of Quality

Richmond Dairies is based in Casino in northern New South Wales, a farming area known for its dairy cattle.

We are proud to continue to produce quality dairy and non-dairy products for the domestic and international markets. Our products are made using natural, high quality, fresh Australian milk supplied by Australian dairy farmers.

Despite being a leading exporter of dairy products Richmond Dairies is a relatively small regional dairy processor. Our size is our strength, allowing us to be flexible and responsive to our customers’ needs. We are always looking for new ways to provide product solutions to both established and emerging markets.

We are focused on exporting our high-quality dairy and non-dairy products to food manufacturing businesses around the world.

Richmond Dairies History

The Richmond Dairies operations in Casino are on a site that has been a functioning dairy factory for more than 100 years. We have a strong connection with our regional dairy industry which has a history stretching back to the 1890s.
We have taken care to preserve the history of our site from the exterior while developing a state-of-the-art factory inside. To look upon our Casino factory is to virtually see the factory in all its 1950’s glory.
We are proud of our history. Our success comes from our firm and long-standing relationships with our employees, our dairy farmers and our customers. Some of these relationships continue after decades. Long may they continue.

Richmond Dairies is part of Longley Heritage which is based in the United Kingdom. The family-owned Longley Heritage came to Australia in 1995 and introduced some of the world’s best dairy technology to our factory at Casino.

Longley Farm was established by brothers Joseph and Edgar Dickinson in 1948. For more than 60 years Longley Heritage has strived to produce exceptional dairy products including cream, butter and yoghurt.

Old-fashioned family values have helped Longley Heritage build an international reputation, known for its commitment to controlling quality at every stage of production.

Longley Heritage believes good milk makes good dairy products and the best milk comes from Jersey cows. That’s why Longley Heritage has one of the largest Jersey herds in Europe.
