Established in 1934, Isle of Man Creamery Limited is a small co-operative of dairy farmers, thriving in the lush pastures and rolling hills on this enchanting Island.

The ideal environment for dairy herds is blended with the care and attention of our dedicated farmers to create exceptional quality milk from happy, healthy cows.

“The milk ‘makes’ the cheese, in every sense of the word.” says Findlay Macleod, Managing Director of Isle of Man Creamery Limited “It is what makes our cheese so creamy and full of flavour”

Our dairy farmers, such as Jean at Lheakerrow Farm, Andreas and Eric at Billown Farm, Ballasalla, farm between 50 and 500 cows. The breeds are mainly Friesian or Holstein, renowned for their milk yields, which means we can guarantee our customers 100% traceability…and 100% taste appeal.

Our Isle of Man Mature Cheddar is matured between 12 - 14 months and our Isle of Man Vintage is matured for 18 - 21 months to give an extra flavoursome bite.

From these fantastic cheeses we have been able to produce an ever-growing range of Award-winning speciality and premium cheeses.

“Isle of Man Milk, Cheese, Cream and butter is available from retailers in every corner of the Isle of Man. The cheeses are also available across the water in England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and Ireland and we’re now exporting some to Europe and North America!” says Findlay.
