About Anchor Food Professionals The recently rebranded Anchor Food Professionals reflects the way the food service team are now doing business, acting as true consultants, working behind the scenes to deliver exciting new tastes and products for chefs, bakers, caterers, commercial kitchens, hotels, restaurants, quick service restaurants and cafes. Speaking during the unveiling at Osome, National Sales Manager Chua Chern Shian shared that Anchor brand products are not manufactured in Malaysia as the products are shipped in from New Zealand.
“The products will be packed before shipping with hygienic procedures for safety of consumption, then it will be shipped in chilled environment, or frozen depending on products.” Once the product reached Malaysia, on an average within 3 to 4 weeks, Anchor Malaysia is responsible to make sure of its quality, ensuring that each products will have a 3 to 4 months shelf life, depending on products. Chua continued, “Anchor is one of the biggest dairy exporter in New Zealand, and we focus mainly on quality, definitely the freshness, and most importantly it is natural.”
When asked to comment on the cows the dairy products are yield from, Chua said, “A lot of people would thought that the cows eat certain ingredients but in New Zealand, most of the time, the cows are free roaming, grazing on the grass at the green field, and the quality of the grass actully depends on season. When it comes to winter, that is the only time we give them dry grass.” Chua elaborated that cows fed on dry grass will take in less nutrients as compared to cows fed on grass from the field. “However, during winter we do not have much productions because the cows would be resting as we do not want to overwork them.”
According to Chua, almost 90% of the farmers in New Zealand contributes milk to Anchor, “Fonterra is a corporation of farmers so we help them maximise the efficiency of milk the provide to us, and that is how Anchor helps in increasing the livelihood of farmers.”
