Two Strong Divisions.
One Commitment To Excellence


To meet the demands of a diverse group of consumers across the U.S., Dean Foods oversees two operating divisions: Fresh Dairy Direct-Morningstar (FDD) and WhiteWave-Alpro.
Fresh Dairy Direct-Morningstar: Delivering Confidence, From Coast To Coast
When consumers reach into their local dairy cases, they're looking for more than just a gallon of milk or a pint of sour cream. They expect a fresh, safe and absolutely delicious product.
Since its inception, Dean Foods has been building consumer confidence with a wide variety of local and regional dairy case brands that include milk, creamers, ice cream and cultured dairy products.
Freshness is key to our success of this group. With approximately 100 facilities throughout the country, Fresh Dairy Direct-Morningstar (FDD) relies on what we believe is one of the most extensive refrigerated "direct store delivery" (DSD) system in the United States. Every day, we send out approximately 13,000 refrigerated trucks, tractors and trailers onto America's roads and highways to deliver our fresh products to more than 170,000 locations across the country.
As the only national dairy producer, nobody can deliver like we can.
WhiteWave-Alpro: Good for You, Good for the Earth.
Headquartered in Broomfield, Colorado, our WhiteWave-Alpro division offers a robust portfolio of premium food and beverage brands including organic and natural leaders -- Horizon Organic®, Silk® Soymilk and almond milk, Alpro® soy food products and indulgent favorites such as International Delight® and LAND O' LAKES® products. The team maintains a proud tradition of social and environmental responsibility.
More than just a leader in nutritious products,
WhiteWave-Alpro is committed to sustainable business
practices. The division was recently recognized
for the fifth time with the EPA Green Power Award for industry
leadership in support of renewable energy. Click here to read more about Responsible
