Nourishment for life is not only our passion but has been our mission for over six decades. Here at LALA U.S., we believe our success comes from listening to the needs of our customers which is why we have continued to expand and grow our business. The LALA U.S.® story is rich with dairy history. Our name comes from our parent company, Grupo LALA – a Mexican dairy company, founded in 1949 in Torreón, Coahuila. It is the only dairy company that operates nationwide in Mexico. It expanded into the United States in 2005, and began acquiring manufacturing plants in North America in 2009. Today, LALA U.S. continues to expand its reach across North America with both regional and national value-added dairy brands from manufacturing plants in Colorado, Nebraska and Texas.
As one of the largest companies in the processed meats sector, we are, in many ways, the industry standard because of our in-depth knowledge of our customers and consumers which allows us to generate growth opportunities in all markets, and to deliver our goal: to become one of the leading European food companies. We work in all sales channels and market segments, providing both traditional charcuterie and more modern, convenient foods: dry sausage, dry ham, poultry, cooked ham, hot dogs, pizzas, patês, meal components, sandwich spreads, ready meals and fresh and semi-fresh meats. This is an array of products which, due to its variety and quality, helps us to cement our position as the leading company in the European processed meats industry. One of the pillars of Campofrio Food Group is our brand portfolio, one of the strongest in the industry with most of our brands being leaders in their respective local markets. We are present in Europe and America through our eight business units based in Spain, Italy, Portugal, US (South Region), Germany, Belgium, France and The Netherlands (North Region) and a joint venture, Caroli Foods Group, in Romania. Because of this significant presence we are able to extend our penetration to all 27 EU members and respond to growth opportunities in other markets.
Byte is the most efficient, affordable fresh food solution for workplaces.
In 1921, 320 dairy farmers met in St. Paul, Minnesota, to form the Minnesota Cooperative Creameries Association. Their idea was simple—join together to effectively market and distribute members dairy production across the country. From there, we quickly set our sights on growth. Just eight years after establishing our butter marketing organization, we expanded into the ag services and feed businesses. Our international journey kicked off 52 years later, as we began relaying the lessons we had learned to support local agriculture in developing nations around the world. Those efforts have also helped us expand our commercial business beyond the borders of the United States. Today, our four businesses give us a farm-to-fork view of agriculture. Pair this with our farmer ownership and we are uniquely qualified to fulfill our purpose of feeding human progress around the world, while always delivering on our responsibility to member-owners through our core values. We are united in a common cause, committed to excellence and inspired by our place in the world—but there are no shortcuts. We have never lost sight of the value of a hard days work.
