Old Home Foods invests in technology and intellectual capital
A local fluid milk processor, Peter Arthur “P.A.” Hanson and his sons purchased Old Home in 1960. Today, P.A.’s grandson Rick holds the title of CEO. He hired Geoff Murphy, an experienced yogurt operations veteran from General Mills Inc., Minneapolis, in 1998. In September 2002, Hanson named Murphy to be company president. Murphy is the first non-family member to lead Old Home Foods.
