Tirlán sales up 10% as milk supply surges

Co-op paid €1.8bn to farmer suppliers as it reports strong financial performance last year

Tirlán chief executive Seán Molloy said 2025 marked a record year for milk supply, driven by expansion at farm level and improved productivity.

Tirlán paid €1.8bn to its farmer suppliers last year as milk production surged and the co-op reported a strong financial performance for 2025.

The farmer-owned business processed 3.2 billion litres of milk — about one-third of the national pool — with volumes up 7% year-on-year and milk solids increasing by 9%.
