For the 10th annual Dairy 100, Dairy Foods solicited the top companies in the industry through emails, faxes, and phone calls. In cases where the company did not wish to divulge dairy-specific sales figures, estimates were made using financial report information, and industry experts. The sales figures are for dairy products or products dairies could make. That means juice and non-dairy creamers are counted, but pizzas, pickles and coffee are not.

Note on the Sales Figures.

Sales are expressed in millions of dollars US. A recent accounting procedure change,
EIFT 01-9, has caused some sales figures to be reported lower than in past years.

(* Dairy Foods estimate.) (^ Figure adjusted from last year's table.)
