About the Company

B

Borden Dairy Co

What started with Gail Borden, Jr. in 1857 as a simple solution for milk distribution quickly grew to become one of the largest, most recognized dairy brands in the industry. Along the way, we’ve celebrated many remarkable milestones, from inventing the first practical method of condensing milk to being the first dairy producer to distribute milk in those timeless glass bottles.

Today, we hold our heritage close to our hearts, staying faithful to our original vision: to bring value — both nutritional and familial — to America’s dining room. See, we go back to a time when a man’s promise was mightier in word than in writing; when mission statements weren’t needed to have a clearly defined purpose; and when the bottom line was to keep children happy and healthy.

We’re more than sales goals; we’re 150 years of good values, passed down from generation to generation, and we hold our company to them. Our commitment to quality and freshness is our way of sharing our family pride, from our kitchen to yours.
