We are proud to say that the dairy products our employees produce from top quality milk supplied by our Northeast dairy farm families are among the finest in the world. Whether you prefer the World's Best Cheddar from Vermont or New York's Finest cheese, the dairy farm families of Agri-Mark have a brand for you.

Our trademark Cabot brand has won the title of World's Best Cheddar twice - in 1998 and 2006 -- and has won every other major industry award when pitted against all other U.S. cheese companies, including those from Wisconsin and the West Coast.

Our farmers recently invested several million dollars in a dairy plant in Chateaugay, New York where our McCadam Cheese, brand of New York Cheddar is produced. Those investments are reaping returns -- McCadam was named "America's Best Cheese" in 2007 at the U.S. Cheese Championships and also won Gold at the 2007 New York State Fair. We also make Muenster, Havarti and other European cheeses at this facility.

Our farmers and employees work together to produce the world's finest cheeses, but we also capture valuable whey proteins at our $20 million whey protein plant that is part of our Middlebury, Vermont Cheddar facility. We use the whey from our cheese operations in Cabot, Middlebury, and Chateaugay to produce concentrated whey proteins and whey powders. These products are marketed worldwide from our offices in Wisconsin for use in baby formulas and other nutritional food applications.

It starts with a commitment made by our Northeast farm families to produce the best milk possible 365 days a year and our employees to continue the tradition of quality dairy product production that our cooperative has carried on since 1913. We have an unbeatable team which has worked to establish two valuable dairy brands that are growing each year for the benefit of our farmer-owners.
