Dairy products powered by green energy

Latteria Sociale Valtellina is a cooperative of more than 100 members producing cow’s and goat’s milk in the Lombardy region of Italy. With the support of a loan financed by an EAFRD financial instrument, the cooperative could renovate its main production hall, purchase new machines for pasteurising and bottling milk, build a new laboratory and install photovoltaic panels, making considerable savings on production costs, water, and energy.

The EAFRD Credit Fund supported agri-food companies in Lombardy, Italy, to increase value added along the entire food production chain.
