Automating an organic dairy
Aurora Organic Dairy (AOD) is the leading producer of store-brand organic milk and butter for U.S. retailers, operating several farms and facilities across the nation. Based in Boulder, Colo., it oversees heifer farms and organic dairy farms in Colorado and Texas, as well as organic dairy processing plants in Platteville, Colo., and Columbia, Mo. They manage the entire product lifecycle—from its farms to its processing facility—with a dedication to organic standards and sustainable production at every stage. To meet these standards and ensure the highest quality product for their customers, Aurora needed an efficient solution to build an in-house cold-storage warehouse. This is how Aurora’s partnership with Westfalia began—in Platteville, Colo.
