Thank you for considering
Spring Valley Dairy as your quality dairy distributor.
Spring Valley Dairy receives
its products from many different sources. We, therefore, find
it necessary to closely monitor the quality of those products.
We are confident and proud of our product lines. Our fluid
milk suppliers – Darigold, Mallorie’s Dairy and
Lucerne – have been in the dairy production business
for decades. We have great relationships with them, which
allows us to deliver the highest quality products at the best
value.
Mallorie’s Dairy is a family-operated
producing dairy, doing business since 1954. They currently
milk approximately 2,000 cows and have their own processing
plant and distribution system. Participating in competition
sponsored by Oregon State University and the Oregon Dairy
Industries, Inc., Mallorie’s milk received multiple
“Gold Awards of Excellence” based upon quality
and taste. Mallorie’s guarantees non-use of growth hormone
recombinant Bovine Somatotropin (rBST) and this guarantee
is stated upon the Spring Valley, Curly’s and Mallorie’s
labels.
Darigold is a farmer owned company. Eighty-four
local Darigold farms, all located in Oregon, comprise the
Darigold co-op. There are two Darigold processing plants in
Oregon that employ 250 people. It is easy to see that there
are many families in Oregon that are supported by Darigold.
The local economy is helped even further when the employees
of Spring Valley Dairy, Mallorie’s Dairy and Lucerne
are considered.
Our organic products come primarily from Noris
Dairy, located in Crabtree, Oregon. Noris is similar to Mallorie’s
in that they have their own herd and bottling plant. Their
milk is not homogenized but is lower temperature pasteurized
to preserve the integrity of the milk. Noris, like Mallorie’s,
Lucerne and Darigold, guarantees non-use of rBST.
Lucerne Foods has been a leader in food manufacturing
for 75 years, providing quality products and services to the
food service and private label industries. They have two dairy
plants, an ice cream production facility, and two bakeries
operating in the Pacific Northwest. Lucerne Foods takes pride
in the quality of their products, and support each facility
with a fully staffed lab. The Lucerne Foods dairy plants produce
their fluid milk from cows that have not been treated with
rBST. Our Spring Valley Dairy label reflects this commitment
to our customers with the message displayed prominently on
all our gallon packages.
Spring Valley Dairy is certified by the State
of Oregon as a Woman Business Enterprise (WBE), certification
#4873. The company was founded in 1981. Gordy and Jayne Hoy
have owned Spring Valley since 1985. We have distribution
depots in Salem, Eugene and Redmond, Oregon. Our geographic
distribution area spans north to Longview, Washington, south
to Medford, west to the Oregon Coast and east to Bend/Redmond,
as well as the Columbia Gorge. Approximately 80 employees
work for Spring Valley Dairy and, therefore, help to support
our local economy. We currently service over 1,000 customers
ranging from convenience stores and care centers, to government
institutions and specialty manufacturers.
Spring Valley Dairy is committed to doing our
part to help the environment. We are currently completing
our application for the Marion County EarthWISE program, which
shows our commitment to environmentally friendly practices.
We strive to provide the highest quality products
available that are handled in the safest manner possible.
To this end, we are participating in the AIB International
Food Safety Program. Spring Valley Dairy received a Certificate
of Achievement this past October –
earning a "superior" rating, the highest
possible rating – for its
program of maintaining and improving in-warehouse food safety
and hygiene.
As your dairy products
supplier, Spring Valley Dairy will endeavor to maintain fair
and economical pricing for our high quality products. Customer
Service is extremely important to us. It is our objective
to provide you with invariably outstanding customer service.
