U.S. Dairy’s sustainably produced milk supply assures a world-class portfolio of products and multi-functional ingredients to meet diverse and evolving needs. As a leading global supplier of quality dairy ingredients and cheeses, the U.S. dairy industry embraces providing nutritious, responsibly produced foods to nourish people and foster a sustainable future.
Since 1998, the U.S. Dairy Export Council (USDEC), a non-profit independent membership organization, has been working closely with Southeast Asian food and beverage industry professionals to help meet growing dairy demands in the region. Through its Singapore-based subsidiary, USDEC Singapore Ltd. and representative network across the ASEAN region, USDEC seeks to be a collaborative, long-term partner providing innovative, sustainable solutions, accelerating customer and end-user success with U.S. dairy products and ingredients.
The Council (which represents the global trade interests of U.S. dairy producers, proprietary processors and cooperatives, ingredient suppliers, and export traders) is committed to enriching the well-being of people, communities, and the planet, and to sharing science-backed information on the health, nutritional and sustainability benefits U.S. dairy delivers.
U.S. dairy farmers and processors have a long legacy of producing high-quality products in an environmentally and economically responsible way. As the world’s largest producer of cow’s milk, the U.S. is well-positioned for continued growth and progress to meet rising demand.
Continually innovating, U.S. producers’ modern farming practices result in unmatched farm efficiency to produce more milk while also conserving the earth’s precious resources. This supports delivering a steady, year-round milk supply 365 days a year — a key difference from the seasonal supply fluctuations of other milk-producing nations.
Commitment across the dairy production value chain and the United States’ highly tested and regulated food system provides assurance of quality U.S. dairy products and the versatility of ingredients offers exciting and seemingly endless possibilities for capitalizing on their nutritional advantages as well.
