Shake-up in Milk Delivery Services in Aberdeen and Inverness

Graham's the Family Dairy has sold its doorstep delivery operations in Aberdeen and Inverness due to rising fuel prices, labour costs, and overall running expenses. Ayrshire-based family business Mills Milk acquired the Inverness segment, while Dundee's Kerr’s Dairy took over the Aberdeen customer base.

Mills Milk has significantly expanded its delivery network, now serving 7,000 customers in the Inverness region, including Aviemore, Dingwall, Elgin, Forres, Invergordon, and Nairn. Mills also struck a deal with Kerr’s Dairy, which adds an additional 473 customers in Aberdeen, allowing both companies to focus on their respective geographic areas.

Kerr’s Dairy, a five-generation family business with 120 years of history, has grown significantly since entering the Aberdeen market in June 2020. The company now serves 23,500 customers across Dundee and Aberdeen.

The transition marks a strategic shift for Graham's, as it aims to concentrate on supermarket supply chains.
