The Northeast Dairy Suppliers Association consists of over 200 dairy vendor and supplier member companies including international businesses as well as small, family owned companies, all of whom distribute goods and services to the dairy industry.
The membership is administered by a Board of Directors elected bi-annually from the general membership. Director meetings are held four times a year, including a virtual annual meeting, held in the spring each year.
We hold four events each year that offer a great opportunity to network with the Northeast Dairy Foods processing membership.
