Bega Cheese had a market capitalisation of around $A250m when it listed on the Australian sharemarket in August 2011. The former dairy co-operative’s market value topped $A1bn in late December 2015, and its share price rose by 42 per cent during the calendar year. The stock has benefited from plans for a nutritional foods joint venture deal with Blackmores, which amongst other things will tap into the growing demand for infant formula.
