The cheeses include Anchor Protein+ with 11g of protein per serving.
Fonterra is introducing a cheese range to its Anchor brand in New Zealand, and five new varieties will be available.
The new range will include lactose-free and high-protein variants, as well as traditional Tasty, Colby and Edam flavours.
According to the brand, the Protein+ cheddar has 26% more protein than the Anchor Tasty variety, as it contains 11g of protein per serving.
Cheeses in the new range will be available from selected retailers in New Zealand in both 500g and 1kg packs.
Fonterra’s New Zealand marketing director Clare Morgan said: “When pioneer Henry Reynolds launched Anchor in 1886 he would have never imagined that over a century later more than 150 Anchor products would be sold every minute. This week it’s set to grow even more.
“We’re excited to see our Anchor cheese in the fridges. It’s giving Kiwi’s back one of the most trusted and liked brands in cheese.
“Our Zero Lacto cheese has been introduced as an additional option for Kiwis with lactose intolerance.
“While most hard cheese is naturally low in lactose this is batch tested to ensure there is no lactose, providing a guaranteed lactose-free cheese option.”
