Leprino Foods to Work With O'Neill Consulting

News EditorCheese, Company Announcement

leprinofoodsThe world’s largest mozzarella producer has retained O’Neill Consulting Group LLC, a Wakefield-based executive search firm, to support the expansion of its manufacturing facilities in California.

In its partnership with Denver-based Leprino Foods Co., O’Neill Consulting will recruit 15 Front Line Managers for one of the company’s plants in Lemoore, California. According to Jim Nellis, Director of Client Development with OCG, the largest of Leprino’s 10 domestic facilities, the Lemoore West plant, will increase production by 66%. These roles are critical to a seamless transition.

Leprino Foods supplies cheese to most of the United States’ nationwide pizza chains — including Domino’s, Papa John’s and Pizza Hut — as well as many major food manufacturers and distributors. Its annual sales of cheese and other dairy products top $2.4 billion.

The company’s Lemoore West facility —one of the largest mozzarella manufacturing facilities in the world — processes six million pounds of milk each day in the production of cheese, whey and lactose products. Upon completion of this phase of the expansion in 2009, the facility will process ten million pounds of milk each day setting the stage for the state of California to overtake Wisconsin as the largest producer of cheese in the United States.
