We spoke with Sander Oosterhuis, Sales Director at Vreugdenhil Dairy Foods, about the opportunities in goat dairy and the strength of the long-standing partnership with Valfoo. "The strength of our partnership with Valfoo lies in the combination of expertise. Vreugdenhil specialises in producing high-quality goat milk powders, while Valfoo has extensive knowledge of international goat dairy markets, applications and customer needs. Together, we help customers find the right solution for their products."
Connecting the entire value chain
The partnership starts at the source. Fresh goat milk from affiliated Dutch and German farms is coordinated through Melkweg, Valfoo's subsidiary and the link between dairy farms and the processing stage. The milk is then processed at Vreugdenhil Dairy Foods' specialised production facility in Putten, the Netherlands, where it is transformed into high-quality goat milk powder under strict quality standards.
Once produced, Valfoo connects these ingredients with customers and applications across international markets. Together, this creates a reliable supply chain from farm to market, combining high-quality milk, specialised production expertise and in-depth knowledge of goat dairy applications.

Opportunities in goat dairy
Interest in goat dairy continues to grow across a broad range of markets and applications. Goat milk powder is a versatile ingredient that can be used in specialised nutrition, dairy products, confectionery and other food applications. According to Sander Oosterhuis, customers are increasingly looking for consistency, quality and transparency throughout the supply chain. By bringing together reliable milk sourcing, specialised processing and international market expertise, the partnership is well positioned to support these needs.
