California Dairies, Inc.

About Us

Established in 1999 as the result of a successful merger of three prominent California dairy processing cooperatives, California Dairies, Inc.®, is a milk marketing and processing cooperative co-owned by nearly 400 dairy families.

Our independent, family-owned member dairies are located throughout California’s rural landscape from San Diego County in the south to Sacramento County in the north. With 100 percent of our member dairies located within 100 miles of a CDI manufacturing facility or one of our customer’s creameries, our member-owners’ fresh, raw milk is transformed into a variety of high-quality dairy products within 24 hours of arrival.

As a leading manufacturer of butter, milk powder, nutritional milk powder and fluid milk products, we only use high-quality, simple ingredients in our products. We make it our responsibility to profitably market, process and add value to our members’ milk while remaining committed to our core values in providing our consumers and customers with wholesome products.

At CDI, we believe that we are stronger together: on-farm and at the processing facility. Through the partnership with our member-owners, we work concertedly to ensure the production of safe, healthy and nutritious dairy products for our customers and consumers.
