  Hello potential future Oatly employee. It's us, the original oat drink company that started in Sweden back 30 or so years ago.
In the last few years, we've become a popular and pioneering dairy-alt player in the UK market. In fact, we were recently voted one of for a small organisation. We're continuing to establish our presence here, determined on being part of the discussion on the long-term future of the food and beverage industry. We exist to make it easy for people to eat better and live healthier lives without recklessly taxing the planet's resources in the process.
