Hiland Dairy Foods is honored for excellence by Quality Chekd
Umpqua Dairy Products and Galliker Dairy also receive awards at the association's annual meeting.
Hiland Dairy Foods Co., Springfield, Mo.; Umpqua Dairy Products Co., Roseburg, Ore.; and Galliker Dairy Co., Johnstown, Pa., took the top Quality Chekd honors in dairy excellence, plant performance and marketing, respectively, at the 2013 QCS Leadership Conference held last month in New Orleans. Members and suppliers of QCS Purchasing partners, Quality Chekd Dairies, SECO and Allied Purchasing attended this year’s conference.
“Our membership, as a whole, strives to achieve and maintain only the highest quality standards in every aspect of their operation,” said Peter Horvath, president of QCS Purchasing, Quality Chekd Dairies and SECO. “This annual leadership conference not only honors those members who distinguish themselves in key areas of importance, but also allows every attendee the chance to collect new ideas which they can then take home and integrate into the various segments of their daily operation.”
