Associated Milk Producers to expand production at Sanborn, IA plant

Expansion will include eight state-of-the-art cheese vats, increasing daily processing capacity to 3 million pounds of milk.

July 5, 2017

Associated Milk Producers, Inc. (AMPI), New Ulm, Minn., announced plans to more than double processing capacity at its Sanborn, Iowa, plant. Expansion will include eight state-of-the-art cheese vats, increasing daily processing capacity to 3 million pounds of milk.

“Increased demand for AMPI’s award-winning cheese, along with growing milk production on member farms, is the basis for this cooperative investment,” says Steve Schlangen, chairman of the AMPI board of directors and a dairy farmer at Scdairy.

AMPI cheesemakers will begin producing cheese in the new vats by the end of 2017.
