Dairy titans US and Italy unite for global goals

The US and Italy, two dairy kings, are now on the same team. The U.S. Dairy Export Council (USDEC), National Milk Producers Federation (NMPF), and Italy’s Dairy Association, Assolatte, have signed on the dotted line, promising to buddy up until 2025. 

They’re all set to proudly ensure milk and dairy products wear their true tags. Plus, they’re rallying for rules that applaud the dairy world’s green efforts globally. 

NMPF’s leader, Jim Mulhern, highlighted the duo's shared dairy love as the collab’s fuel. On the flip side, USDEC’s Krysta Harden chatted about their mutual dairy dreams and ambitions. She’s all for science-driven rules that promote green thumbprints in the dairy world. 

And Assolatte’s head honcho, Paolo Zanetti? He’s buzzing about this power pact, hopeful to iron out any dairy production and sales kinks. 

This new partnership vibes with the dairy deals USDEC and NMPF inked with Argentina and Chile last year.
