Wallaby Yogurt Company

What Wallaby Yogurt Company does

Wallaby Yogurt Company is a privately held U.S. manufacturer of premium organic Greek/Aussie-style yogurt, founded in 1994 after the founders' trip to Australia inspired a unique Americanized version of Australian-style cultured yogurt. The company is currently a subsidiary within Platinum Equity's portfolio, operating under Horizon Organic Dairy LLC, with corporate headquarters in Broomfield, Colorado. Its core product line consists of two 32-ounce whole-milk Greek yogurt SKUs (Plain at 15g protein per serving, Vanilla Bean at 12g), differentiated by a proprietary twice-cultured, slow-crafted production process and a proprietary blend of yogurt cultures that yield a distinctive creamy texture. All products are USDA certified organic, certified gluten-free since 2013 by GFCO, certified Kosher, and the company is a Certified B Corporation.

The technical foundation rests on a low-and-slow fermentation method, traditional straining to remove whey, and a proprietary culture blend that the company positions as distinct from standard Greek yogurt cultures. Wallaby sources milk from over 300 USDA certified organic farms across the United States, with farms required to meet pasture-grazing and non-GMO feed standards. The combined certification stack (USDA Organic, B Corp, GFCO, Kosher) functions as both a quality signal and a competitive barrier in the premium organic dairy segment.

Wallaby generates revenue exclusively through wholesale sales of its yogurt to retail grocery partners across the United States; it does not sell directly to consumers via e-commerce, instead using a website-based store locator to drive offline purchases. Go-to-market is supported by organic social presence on Facebook and Instagram, a content-marketing recipe library, and the certifications themselves as marketing differentiators. The business serves health-conscious consumers and committed organic-food shoppers who prioritize clean ingredients, high protein content, and ethical sourcing, with use cases spanning breakfast, snacking, cooking, baking, and dessert. The company employs 51-100 people and does not publicly disclose revenue.

Expansion highlights3 records

Others

• Horizon Organic: Sister brand under Platinum Equity's Horizon Organic Dairy LLC; shares parent ownership, organic milk supply chain, and potentially back-office infrastructure with Wallaby, making it the closest operational peer even though product lines (milk vs. yogurt) differ.

Broad incumbents

• Chobani: Category-leading Greek yogurt brand with massive scale, broad SKU portfolio, and heavy marketing spend. Wallaby competes for the same high-protein, premium consumer but operates at a fraction of Chobani's scale and distribution power.
• The Dannon Company: One of the largest U.S. yogurt manufacturers (Danone subsidiary) with deep retail relationships across conventional and natural channels; competes with Wallaby across multiple yogurt subcategories.
• Yoplait: Mass-market yogurt incumbent (General Mills) with broad SKU coverage from kids' to Greek-style; competes with Wallaby primarily on shelf space and price-tier consumer overlap.
• Fage: Established Greek yogurt brand with deep U.S. retail penetration; competes with Wallaby for the strained-yogurt consumer and has the scale advantage of a multinational dairy manufacturer.

Direct peers

• Stonyfield Farm: Organic yogurt pioneer (owned by Lactalis) competing directly with Wallaby in USDA-organic, clean-label yogurt across the same retail channels, with a broader SKU portfolio including cups, squeezes, and smoothies.
• Maple Hill Creamery: Organic, grass-fed whole-milk yogurt brand with a similar premium, regenerative-agriculture story; competes with Wallaby in the USDA-organic and clean-label yogurt segment.
• Noosa Yoghurt: Australian-style premium yogurt brand widely viewed as Wallaby's closest head-to-head competitor, targeting the same Aussie-style, less-tart, whole-milk consumer with nationally distributed retail yogurt.
• Siggi's: Premium Icelandic-style skyr yogurt competing for the same high-protein, clean-label shopper as Wallaby, with strong DTC and natural-channel presence; now owned by Lactalis.

Emerging players

• Icelandic Provisions: Premium Icelandic skyr brand targeting the same high-protein, clean-label consumer as Wallaby; smaller and more emergent but rapidly expanding U.S. retail distribution.
