A Better Kind of Milk
Teiny began with a simple question: Surely milk can be better?
It started when Emma, still at university, noticed something she couldn’t ignore. Every day, the tally of bobby calves sent to slaughter went up. Around the same time, she was navigating her own health challenges and struggling to find food that was truly nourishing, tasted good, and didn’t create waste.
For her final project in her product design degree, she decided to create something different. An oat milk powder that is rich in nutrition, low in sugar, genuinely sustainable, and actually delicious.
From Idea to Reality
Soon after, Emma’s best friend Renee joined the journey. With shared values and a bit of chaos, the two turned a student idea into a real business supported by local manufacturing, investment, and encouragement from founders across New Zealand.
What We Stand For
Teiny is more than oat milk powder. It is a way to make things better for our bodies and for the world we share.
We aren't perfect, but we are here to create something better and we would love you to be part of it.
