a brighter
tomorrow
Horizon Organic believes
farming done the right way
drives healthier, sustainable
food communities.

A
s the first national brand of USDAcertified
organic milk, Horizon Organic,
Broomfield, Colo., has always been
dedicated to advancing the organic industry,
supporting family farmers and respecting the
environment, all in pursuit of providing the best
organic dairy products possible.
Founders Mark Retzloff and Paul Repetto
were members of the Organic Foods Association
of North America, a vocal group that united
most of the major environmental organizations
in the US around their cause. Together they
helped get the Organic Food Production Act
(OFPA) passed in a floor vote in the House in
1990. Even though the OFPA passed, it still took
until 2002 for the National Organic Program to
finalize regulations.
" To celebrate, Happy the Cow - the star of
our logo - rang the bell on the NASDAQ. But
even during those 12 years before organic was
finalized, Horizon was already implementing
those soon-to-be organic standards, since its
founding in 1991, " said Tyler Holm, president
of premium dairy at Danone North America.
" More than 30 years in, our commitment
to our people, planet and animals remains
strong, and our work to continue pioneering
the organic industry forward reflects that.
Today, Horizon Organic is the largest
USDA-certified organic dairy brand in the
18 NOV-DEC 2022 | DAIRYPROCESSING.COM
world, with offerings across organic fluid
milk, organic yogurt, cheese, butter, school
essentials such as single-serve shelf-stable
offerings and more. "
Horizon Organic, as part of Danone North
America, is part of the B Corp community, and
driven by the company mission to " bring health
through food to as many people as possible. "
" We strive to be authentic to our brand
values, including the values of organic and
sustainable farming, while developing great
products that deliver on key nutrients and great
taste for consumers, " Holm said.
B CORP CERTIFIED
Horizon Organic joined the B Corp community
in 2018, as part of Danone North America.
B Corp certification is a designation that a
business is meeting high standards of verified
performance, accountability and transparency
