Coles has signed a 10-year contract with Murray Goulburn for the supply of milk. On 3 July 2014, Murray Goulburn opened a new milk processing plant in the Melbourne suburb of Laverton. The plant will produce 1.3 million litres of milk per annum, which will be sold at Coles supermarkets under its own brand. Coles MD John Durkan said the company will seek similar long-term supply arrangements with other food manufacturers
