Statement of Significance
Gormandale Cooperative Creamery and Butter Company Limited is a visible reminder of the importance of the dairy industry in small-town Gippsland. Although the building dates from the 1950s and some buildings have been removed, the site is of considerable local importance. The series of moves and amalgamations over the years is typical of the dairy industry in Gippsland. The long period of production, nearly eighty years, is proof of the tenacity of local farmers to continue operating in the face of geographical isolation from their international markets. The current building itself is not remarkable but is symbolic of the efforts and persistance of local farmers.
It is also a good example of a former dairy industry building still being used by a local industry, in this case a construction firm, in contrast to the many former butter factories in Gippsland which remain empty and unused.
