ALE Delivers 220 Australian Holstein Dairy Cattle to Cambodia

Australia's Livestock Exporters has delivered 220 Holstein Friesian dairy cattle to Cambodia, expanding the country's largest dairy herd to around 1,400 head.
SYDNEY, Australia - September 1, 2026 - Fifth Consignment to Cambodia's Largest Dairy: Australia's Livestock Exporters (ALE) [https://www.australiaslivestockexporters.com/] has delivered 220 Australian Holstein Friesian dairy cattle [https://www.australiaslivestockexporters.com/holstein-fresians-dairy-cattle/] to Cambodia by air freight, expanding the country's largest commercial dairy operation at Kirisu Farm in Takeo province to approximately 1,400 head.

It is the fifth consignment ALE has flown to the farm, and follows the original foundation herd of 550 Australian Holstein heifers ALE supplied in 2020, the shipment that established Cambodia's first large-scale commercial dairy. ALE was the first Australian exporter to supply dairy cattle into Cambodia and has supplied every head of the farm's herd since.

The Australian Embassy in Cambodia announced the arrival, noting the expansion is expected to reduce Cambodia's reliance on imported dairy products and create local employment. The project is supported through the Cambodia Australia Partnership for Resilient Economic Development (CAPRED) [https://capred.org/], Australia's flagship economic development programme in Cambodia.

The cattle travelled in purpose-built livestock air freight crates aboard a dedicated cargo aircraft, keeping transit time short and welfare standards high from the Australian quarantine facility through to arrival.

"Delivering a shipment of this size requires months of planning before the aircraft leaves Australia," said a spokesperson for Australia's Livestock Exporters. "Sourcing, pregnancy testing, quarantine and veterinary certification all have to line up."

"We're proud to have supported Cambodia's dairy industry from the very first shipment," the ALE spokesperson said. "Seeing a herd we've supplied from the beginning now producing fresh milk for Cambodian consumers is the outcome every exporter hopes for."

Why Australian Holsteins

Holstein Friesians are among the most productive dairy breeds in the world and make up the overwhelming majority of Australia's national herd. For buyers building or expanding a commercial dairy, Australian Holsteins offer:

* Verified pedigree, health testing and export certification in accordance with Australian export requirements
* Successfully managed in tropical and subtropical production systems when supported by appropriate nutrition and farm management
* Australian biosecurity, animal health and traceability standards

For commercial dairy operators, breeding stock is a long-term investment. Herd health, fertility and ongoing productivity are typically more important than purchase price alone.
