Overview

China Modern Dairy, also known by its Chinese name Xiandai Muye, is a Chinese dairy-farming company. Its business is centered on operating dairy farms and producing raw milk for the dairy supply chain, rather than presenting itself primarily as a consumer-facing packaged-food brand. Its activities therefore sit upstream of retail dairy products: farm operations and milk supply support the wider dairy industry. The company was established in 2005 and is headquartered in Ma'anshan, Anhui. It has been associated with large-scale dairy farming in China and operates in a sector shaped by demand for domestic milk production, farm productivity, animal health, and reliable supply to dairy processors. Its commercial identity is principally corporate and operational, rather than a single consumer product line. China Modern Dairy Holdings Limited has been listed in Hong Kong, while the business is part of China Mengniu Dairy Company Limited. The supplied website address is https://www.moderndairyir.com; the available homepage text identifies MZ ASIA as a marketing name of MZCAN INC. and does not provide company-specific information about China Modern Dairy. Accordingly, the website text alone does not substantiate the company details in this profile.

History

China Modern Dairy was established in 2005 as a Chinese dairy-farming business. Its development has been tied to the expansion of modern, large-scale dairy farming in China and the role of domestic farms in supplying milk to the country's dairy processors. Rather than being chiefly known for a packaged consumer product, the company is identified with farm operations and raw-milk production, placing it in the upstream part of the dairy industry. The company is headquartered in Ma'anshan, Anhui. Its corporate history includes a period as a Hong Kong-listed company, China Modern Dairy Holdings Limited, and its subsequent association with China Mengniu Dairy Company Limited. The business is now described as part of Mengniu's corporate group. Specific dates and transaction terms for ownership changes are not included here because they are not established by the supplied evidence. The supplied website address is an investor-relations-style domain, but the homepage text provided for this dossier does not identify China Modern Dairy. Instead, it states that MZ ASIA is the marketing name of MZCAN INC. This discrepancy means the supplied homepage text cannot be used as support for the company's history, operations, or ownership. No company-specific milestones, executive appointments, product launches, or campaigns are added here without evidence.
