UK dairy brand All Things has today (28 April 2026) announced an equity investment into its supply partner Yester Farm Dairies, aiming to support the growth of its cottage cheese range.
The brand was established as All Things Butter in 2023, and rebranded in January to reflect its expansion into the cheese category. Earlier this month, the company revealed a successful multi-million-pound funding raise, led by The Equity Studio, to support its international expansion.
This latest investment will fund machinery upgrades and increase production capacity, aiming to create a stronger platform for future innovation.
Yester Farm Dairies, based in Scotland, is run by Simon and Jackie McCreery and began producing cottage cheese for All Things in December 2025. All Things reported strong performance of its cottage cheese line in the 12 weeks since its launch, and highlighted Yester Farm Dairies’ shared ambitions for the category.
The cottage cheese range taps into growing interest in high-protein and low-fat dairy options, with cottage cheese recipes trending on social media and All Things noting an opportunity to modernise the category through innovation and quality improvements.
The investment into Yester Farm also centres around supporting domestic processing capacity, regional employment and UK supply chain resilience, All Things added. It marks the first step in the brand’s vertical integration strategy, aiming to build a more resilient British dairy industry. All Things’ entire supply chain and production is UK-based.
Simon McCreery, founder and MD of Yester Farm Dairies, said: “All Things has brought fresh energy into the category and connected with a younger, more food-engaged consumer in a way that is genuinely exciting”.
He added: “Their ethos of supporting the primary producer really resonated with us as farmers ourselves, and we see real value in partnering with a business that combines cultural influence with a clear commitment to product quality, innovation and long-term category growth”.
