A milk broker is the owner of any business engaged in an operation that receives milk direct from a farm and without further processing (other than storing, cooling and/or standardising of the milk) transports it to a third party.

Prior to commencing operations as a milk broker, the following must be completed and submitted to Dairy Food Safety Victoria (DFSV).

  • A licence application form (with a $161.00 lodgement fee);
  • The licence fee paid in full; and
  • A food safety program (for approval).

All Victorian dairy distributors are required to meet the requirements detailed in the Code of Practice for Dairy Food Safety. The Code of Practice sets the minimum mandatory standards for the production, manufacture, storage and transport of milk and dairy foods to safeguard public health. It must be used in conjunction with the Food Standards Code.

All Victorian milk brokers are required to have a food safety program approved by DFSV that addresses the requirements in the Code of Practice for Dairy Food Safety.
