The freshest milk, pasteurised and bottled daily
Three tankers of raw milk sourced from local farms across Merseyside, Lancashire, and the Wirral arrive at our dairy processing site every single day, where we pasteurise and bottle the milk before sending it back out across the North West and into your glasses, bowls, and cups of tea!
We deliver Bates fresh milk six days a week to over 10,000 customers in the Southport area and also supply other local, independent dairies who deliver our products to doorsteps beyond our reach across the area.

Bates Doorstep Deliveries
As one of the last remaining family run dairies in the region, we pride ourselves on the quality of our produce, the efficiency of our delivery service and as always, the freshness of our milk!
As well as our Bates iconic, classic milk floats, our friendly milkmen are very well known throughout the local community and provide a valued service to customers of all type.

Supporting Local Farmers
Since Bates Dairy was established nearly 80 years ago, we have always believed in working closely with local dairy farmers and ensuring the future of the dairy trade remains strong. We have always believed in paying the farmers a fair price for their milk to maintain a good working relationship for many years to come, and operate to an ethos of sustainability.
