Celebrating U.S. cheesemakers
The U.S. cheese industry is known for its excellence, producing hundreds of varieties of cheese. As the world’s largest single-country cheese producer and exporter, U.S. cheesemakers are recognized internationally for their innovation and craftsmanship.
At FHA 2025, visitors will experience the diverse flavour profiles of USA Cheeses and learn how they can elevate local food and beverage offerings. Eight leading U.S. dairy suppliers will present their diverse portfolios, including Agropur, Associated Milk Producers Inc. (AMPI), Dairy Farmers of America, First District Association, Schreiber Foods, Schuman Cheese, Talmera USA Inc., and Tropical Foods LLC.
U.S. Dairy: A growing presence in Southeast Asia
The U.S. is the world’s largest producer of cow’s milk, with over 9.4 million cows. In 2024, the U.S. exported over 17,000 metric tons of cheese to Southeast Asia, including key markets like Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. As demand for premium cheese grows in the region, U.S. dairy is gaining recognition for its consistent quality and unique offerings.
The U.S. cheese community continues to earn international acclaim. In the 2024-2025 World Cheese Awards, U.S. producers won 160 medals, and at the 2024-2025 International Cheese Dairy Awards, they earned 84 medals. These achievements speak to the superior quality of USA cheeses, which are consistently recognized for their quality, innovation, and craftsmanship.
