Sales and Distribution Locations
Organic Valley is primarily run and owned by the farmers that sustain it. The company's income returns largely to the farmers and community in which the crops are grown, which is a contributing factor to the steady prices that Organic Valley attempts to maintain. As of 2013, the cooperative employs roughly 400 at their La Farge headquarters.
Products displaying the Organic Valley logo and USDA Certified organic stamp can be found in all 50 states, Canada, and Japan. The United States is divided into three selling markets: The Western, Central, and Eastern Divisions. Each division is managed by sales staff, producers, and distributors directly associated with the cooperative. Organic Valley has a regional vision and they produce six regional milks that are produced, processed and distributed in New England, Northeast, Heartland, Rocky Mountain, California and the Pacific Northwest. Total sales in 2003 reached $156 million to $715 million in 2011.

Famous quotes containing the words sales and/or distribution:
“The elephant, not only the largest but the most intelligent of animals, provides us with an excellent example. It is faithful and tenderly loving to the female of its choice, mating only every third year and then for no more than five days, and so secretly as never to be seen, until, on the sixth day, it appears and goes at once to wash its whole body in the river, unwilling to return to the herd until thus purified. Such good and modest habits are an example to husband and wife.”
—St. Francis De Sales (1567–1622)
“Classical and romantic: private language of a family quarrel, a dead dispute over the distribution of emphasis between man and nature.”
—Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
