About Betty
Betty is a Jamaican condensed and evaporated milk brand made at the Bog Walk Condensary in St. Catherine, which Seprod's own annual report describes as "once home to the beloved Betty Condensed Milk." Seprod acquired the brand with Nestlé's Jamaican dairy operations in 2016, and the line has since grown to include full cream milk, creamer, low-fat milk and flavoured variants such as cinnamon vanilla nutmeg, marketed as a household staple for porridge, tea and baking.
