Prairie Farms celebrates National Dairy Month
Prairie Farms is celebrating National Dairy Month in a big way, including dairy farmer interviews, product launches, refreshed package designs, give-a-ways, and more.
"It's our favorite time of the year because we're celebrating Dairy Month. I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to our dairy farmers, employees, and loyal customers. Their trust and support is the foundation of our success," said Matt McClelland, CEO/executive vice president of Prairie Farms Dairy. "As a farmer-owned dairy cooperative, our priority is returning value to our dairy farmers, which includes new product introductions. This month, I say 'clear space in the dairy case' for Prairie Farms because we're expanding our portfolio in several categories."
The company is introducing a line of classic natural cheese that includes Cheese Curds, Natural Cheese Spreads, Mini Moon Wheels, and a Classic Cheese Sampler, with nine of the 10 products carrying the Proudly Wisconsin Cheese Badge of Honor.
During June, Prairie Farms is expanding its production and distribution of Lactose Free Milk Gallons and Lactose Free Cottage Cheese and Sour Cream in 16-ounce tubs throughout the company's footprint, which covers more than 40% of the United States.
This follows a soft launch of the lactose-free lineup in April in the St. Louis metro area. For the first time since 2009, the company is also rolling out new packaging for cottage cheese, sour cream, and dips. The simple artisan look with a "best-in-class" wax seal builds on the success of design elements used on its cream cheese and ice cream packaging.
