Straus Family Creamery has a lot to celebrate this year! From its 25th anniversary in business to the upcoming construction of a new facility and new products, the company is ready for its busiest year yet! Founder and CEO Albert Straus took a moment to fill us in on all the exciting events taking place for the company.
“We’re excited to reach this major milestone, our 25th year in business,” he said. “We know there are still challenges that we need to overcome. We continue focusing on creating a replicative sustainable organic farming system that is both environmentally positive and economically viable.”
Construction of the new facility will begin this summer. Albert said the company’s current manufacturing facility in Marshall, California, is nearing full capacity utilization, and it’s also a long commute for many employees. The new facility in Rohnert Park will increase capacity, allowing for the introduction of new products to help sustain more organic family dairy farms in Marin and Sonoma Counties in Northern California.
