History
The Wisconsin Cheeseman was owned and operated for 60 years by the founding family, the Cremers. It was composed of three divisions: the Wisconsin Cheeseman, Mille Lacs Gourmet Foods, and Scott's Fundraising Resource. The company employed 170 workers and recorded $36.4 million in sales in 2006. In 2007 the Wisconsin Cheeseman was purchased by a group of private investors, the Wisconsin Food Gift Company. That company went into receivership in February 2011 and its assets were auctioned off. The Wisconsin Cheeseman was purchased by Colony Brands, the parent company of Swiss Colony. Mille Lacs Gourmet Foods was acquired by Steve’s Wholesale Dairy Company of Sun Prairie.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The history of any nation follows an undulatory course. In the trough of the wave we find more or less complete anarchy; but the crest is not more or less complete Utopia, but only, at best, a tolerably humane, partially free and fairly just society that invariably carries within itself the seeds of its own decadence.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“The view of Jerusalem is the history of the world; it is more, it is the history of earth and of heaven.”
—Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)
