In 1940, a young farmer with a deep respect for the land, a love for cattle, and an unwavering belief in honest dairy laid the foundation for what would become one of Karnataka's enduring dairy legacies. Established in Cox Town, Bengaluru as Pankaj Dairy, the journey began with a simple philosophy: when the land is cared for, the cattle thrive; when the cattle thrive, people receive better dairy.
Over the decades, that small beginning has grown into Arna Dairy β a trusted name serving homes, businesses and professional kitchens across Karnataka. That belief continues to shape every decision we make today.
Today, under the leadership of Dheeraj Keshav, Arna Dairy works with 17,000+ farming families, collecting over 1.35 lakh litres of fresh milk every day, while staying true to the values that inspired its founding more than 85+ years ago.
