Avonmore
The ‘Avonmore’ brand name originates in County Kilkenny, Ireland – it refers to Avonmore Foods, which along with Waterford Foods, merged to create Glanbia plc – the international cheese and nutritional ingredients group which owns the “Avonmore” brand in Ireland.

In 1967 the Avonmore Creameries Federation was formed when 36 small co-operative societies and Unigate Limited came together to establish a new milk processing facility in Ballyragget, Co. Kilkenny.
Avon River
The then new co-operative was named after the Avon river which flows through Callan, Co. Kilkenny, close to the location of the Group’s first processing facility. Avonmore was founded by people who foresaw that farmers could help themselves through their own multipurpose co-operative society. Their plan to grow and expand the business evoked the word more, hence Avonmore.
