The Collective are the dairy shaker uppers and taste bud thrillers creating the yoghurt of tomorrow.

They teamed up with two savvy Brits to bring the great tasting yoghurt over to the UK in 2011. The Collective products are distributed across the UK in supermarkets, grocery stores & convenience stores. The quality of the ingredients really matters and all of The Collective products are all free from artificial colours, flavours and preservatives, suitable for veggies and free from genetically modified ingredients. The Collective's mission is to create happiness inside and out, whether that be in our employees and customers, or out in the community and beyond.
