About us

Since 1965, the brand affectionately known as ‘the little flower’ has been spreading French dairy know-how throughout the world. Our brands are present in more than 50 countries and we are the world’s second largest player in fresh dairy products. Yoplait first entered the UK market in 1991 and since then brands including Petits Filous, Frubes, Yop, Wildlife and our licence products Peppa Pig and Paw Patrol have been firm favourites with households across the UK. As the number one children’s yoghurt company in the UK, our mission is to be the positive voice of nutrition for kids. Our yoghurts are fortified with Calcium and Vitamin D to give kids all the goodness they need to grow strong. We believe everyone should have access to delicious tasting, fortified yoghurts. Proud to be owned by Sodiaal, the largest cooperative of dairy farmers in France, we make sure that their hard work is rewarded by capturing every precious drop of creamy milk inside each of our delicious yoghurts.

  • 🚨 NEW PRODUCT LAUNCH 🚨 We're extending our yoghurt expertise into the adult category by launching SKYR Natural, based on an Icelandic recipe. Yoplait SKYR is thick and creamy, rich in protein, naturally fat free and rated as ‘best tasting’ when blind tested with consumers 😋 Currently the number one selling product in France from Yoplait out of the total Chilled Yoghurt and Dairy (CYD) category, Yoplait SKYR is set to shake up the plain and natural category when it hits the UK next month in Ocado Retail and Iceland Foods. “In the UK we are famous for our iconic kids’ yoghurt brands including Petits Filous and Frubes but globally we have a much wider repertoire, and our ambition is to bring our wider yoghurt expertise and innovation to UK consumers and retailers,” explains Antoine Hours, General Manager at Yoplait UK. #productlaunch #dairy #yoghurt #naturalyoghurt #skyr Yoplait SKYR is available in 450g pots with an RRP of £2.25.

    Introducing our new YOP recyclable PET bottle ♻️ Our 500g and 825g bottles now feature clear PET and include 35% RPET, with a new mico-perforated sleeve and clear instructions for the consumer to remove before being put into the recycling bin. Each bottle now also sports an attached cap, enabling the PET bottle and cap to be easily sorted and recycled and to help minimise littering.  “Our ambition is for all of our packaging to be recyclable by the end of 2025 and the move to PET and inclusion of RPET in our Yop bottles this year and the move to PET for our Petits Filous, Wildlife, Peppa Pig and Paw Patrol pots last year has seen us take a huge step towards this ambition,” explains Antoine Hours, General Manager at Yoplait UK. “We are confident that we can move towards being a more circular brand as technologies and infrastructures become more sophisticated.” The efforts of our R&D, Packaging, Innovation and Engineering teams at our Monéteau plant are to be congratulated for bringing the new bottle to the UK market 👏 Daniel LUCOT Caroline COMTE Arnaud BERNARD Romain Eteve Yves Peloille Xavier MARTINEAU Victor Dumont Lucie Rivalan Sophie Eeckman Delphine Moreau Léana LAURENT

We combined them all into our latest and greatest on-pack promotion which offers a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Tokyo, Japan worth up to £15,000. The package includes spending money, tickets to major attractions such as Joypolis, Immersive Fort and Electric Avenue, seven night’s accommodation, and more.

    We have kicked off the new year with two new reformulated recipes on our leading kid’s brands, Petits Filous and Frubes, to ensure our products are even healthier, yet still retain the same delicious taste 😋. “Petits Filous and Frubes are well-established and much-loved brands so it’s critical we take a gradual approach to our sugar reduction, and we have done so without resorting to adding thickeners or processed fibres, but our Mission is also to educate about the nutritional value of fortified kids’ yoghurts and bring lost consumers back into the category,” explains Antoine Hours in Convenience Store. Stay tuned for more on our Mission and in the meantime, we'd like to give a huge shout out to our Innovation and R&D teams who have worked tirelessly to ensure our iconic products still retain the taste that kids know and love with the fortification essential for healthy bones!
