Prairie Farms Dairy and its family of companies won 65 awards in 37 of the 93 classes at the World Dairy Expo (WDE) Dairy Product Contest last week. Once again, Prairie Farms received more awards than any other company, making Prairie Farms Dairy the reigning contest champion.
“I would like to thank the Wisconsin Dairy Products Association for hosting the World Dairy Expo competition platform. Winning 65 awards is a great honor, and not only did we top last year's number of WDE awards, but we also retained our place as the competition's most-awarded dairy,” said Matt McClelland, Prairie Farms Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President. “The hard-working dairy farmers who founded our cooperative in 1938 would be proud to see our milk and dairy products compete and win on the world stage. The awards are a true measure of the decades-long commitment of our farm families and employees to making the highest quality dairy products in America. The immeasurable pride behind each award belongs to them, and I am inspired every day by their effort.”

Held in the heart of dairy country, the WDE Championship Dairy Product Contest is sponsored by The Wisconsin Dairy Products Association. The competition not only celebrates product quality, but also highlights the innovation and dedication of dairy producers worldwide, a press release added. Additionally, the first-place winner's products are auctioned off that day, with proceeds going to scholarship programs focused on dairy education.
Congrats to Prairie Farms on these high honors!
