Its current products include growing up milk, UHT milk, pasteurised milk, sterilised milk, family powdered milk, low fat and 0% fat drinking yoghurt, and low fat yoghurt.

History
Dutch Lady Malaysia started as Pacific Milk Industries (Malaya) Sdn Bhd in 1963 where it was commissioned to produce sweetened condensed milk in its Petaling Jaya factory. It was FrieslandFoods’ first production facility based outside of the Netherlands.
Five years later on 24 September 1968, Pacific Milk Industries (Malaya) became the first milk company in Malaysia to be listed on the Stock Exchanges of Kuala Lumpur and Singapore.
The company changed its name to Dutch Baby Milk Industries (Malaya) Berhad in 1975, and again in year 2000 to what it is known now – Dutch Lady Milk Industries Berhad.
Dutch Lady was the first Malaysian dairy company to use Ultra-High Temperature (UHT) processing and packaging to produce and market milk in the country.
The Company continued to progressively manufacture and introduce new products into the Malaysian market – sterilised milk were locally produced and sold in plastic bottles in 1983, production of chilled milk products started in 1986, and fruit yoghurt and growing up milk were introduced into the market in 1988.
