Freedom Foods has launched a chilled almond milk product in a one-litre UV barrier bottle with tamper-proof band screw cap.

The 1L chilled, shrink-wrapped addition to the Australia’s Own Organic range can be found in the refrigerated section of selected supermarkets alongside dairy milk.

Consumers can choose from either unsweetened almond milk or unsweetened almond coconut milk.

The almond milk category currently makes up almost 40 per cent of the dairy alternative market, and it could soon surpass soy if growth continues.

Food & Drink Business

Our Top 100 2025 edition of Food & Drink Business magazine is more than the annual flagship Top 100 Report. Industry leaders reflect on the year past and the one ahead, we provide our annual news review, M&A wrap-up, and all the executive moves, and a Roman-inspired sports drink, Posca, is our final Rising Star for 2025.

A blend of salt, red wine vinegar, and water – known as Posca – was the ‘original sports drink’, helping to keep the soldiers of the Roman Empire marching up to 30 kilometres per day. Keira Joyce spoke with Posca Hydrate co-founders, Merrick Watts and Ed Stening, about reviving a 2000-year-old functional beverage for the modern healthy lifestyle.

From the big deals to the quiet divestments, Food & Drink Business editor, Kim Berry, recounts the mergers and acquisitions of 2025.
