Minerva Dairy can manufacture oil- or flavor-infused organic butters in various package sizes (5.5-oz and 8-oz cups and 5-lb pails) to target specific markets.

Start-up brands turn to dairy processors to make their ideas come to life. So do some established dairies that might not have the in-house expertise or the capital to buy and install processing lines. Contract manufacturing is a multibillion-dollar business benefitting both parties.
