About the Producer
Maffra Cheese Company was established in 1991 by Ferial Zekiman in Tinamba, Gippsland, Victoria, Australia. With a background in chemistry, Zekiman transitioned from her career as a retail chemist to pursue her passion for cheesemaking. She honed her skills at Gilbert Chandler College in Werribee, learning to craft French- and English-style cheeses. In 1991, she acquired decommissioned cheesemaking equipment from the Petersville plant in Trafalgar, marking the beginning of her cheesemaking journey.

Maffra Cheese Company has earned numerous accolades, including Grand Champion Cheese at the Australian Grand Dairy Awards and gold at the World Cheese Championships in 2013. In 2014, their cheddar was named Australia's best cheese at the International Cheese Awards in the United Kingdom.

Today, Maffra Cheese Company is renowned for its exceptional farmhouse cheeses, reflecting a commitment to craftsmanship and purity of flavour.
