Milk Marketing Network

Dairylea sells more than 5.5 billion pounds of raw milk annually through a milk-marketing network that reaches from Maine to Ohio to Maryland. This volume earns Dairylea the position of the largest milk-marketing organization in the Northeast. The Cooperative is commited to maintaining and growing a vibrant Northeast dairy industry.

Through a partnership with Dairy Farmers of America's Northeast Area Council (DFA), Dairylea has formed the milk-marketing venture of Dairy Marketing Services, LLC (DMS). DMS manages the sale and distribution of the raw milk of both organizations, which includes more than 9,500 farms producing 16 billion pounds of raw milk annually.

Dairylea's relationship with DFA, and its stake in DMS, has enabled it to provide members with a superior market and return for their milk by combining the resources of the two largest milk-marketing entities operating in the region. DMS strives to create increased efficiencies in milk assembly, field services and hauling. In addition, DMS is better able to serve the processors and manufacturers in the Northeast and keep those valuable relationships growing and strong.
