A Secure Market is as
SIMPLE AS
ADC stands for Atlantic Dairy Cooperative.
The largest, full-service cooperative in the Northeast is owned
and operated by dairy farmers who know that dairying is a tough
business. They believe their personal growth is best assured in a
strong organization with stable marketing programs. This is particu
larly important with today’s critical shortage, when everyone is
looking for more milk, and some are waving short-term induce
ments at milk producers.
ADC stands for its members.
Atlantic Dairy Cooperative was formed earlier this year by a
merger of Inter-State Milk Producers and Lehigh Valley Farmers
The tradition of service goes on. ADC is committed to;
■ develop long-term guaranteed markets for our members.
■ secure enough milk to meet consumer needs.
■ get the best possible prices for the milk.
■ maximize the dividends paid to our members.
