Agropur Cooperative is a North American dairy cooperative founded in 1938. It is a supplier of products for the industrial, retail and food service sectors. It also has a number of its own consumer brands and products .[1]

History

In 1971, the Quebec-based Coopérative Agricole de Granby (renamed Agropur in 1979)[2] obtained the Canadian licence to manufacture and market Yoplait products.[3] In 1993, Agropur's yogurt manufacturing and marketing operations were combined with those of Agrifoods, a federal cooperative owned by 2,500 dairy producers in Alberta, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan, forming Ultima Foods.

In December 2020, Agropur announced the sale of its yogurt activities in Canada to Lactalis, a French based company.[4]

In 2022, Agropur made a significant $34 million investment in its ice cream and frozen novelties plant novelties in Truro, Nova Scotia, Canada.[5]

In January 2017, Agropur acquired the Nova Scotia-based company Scotsburn, expanding its offering of ice cream and novelty products. At the time of the acquisition, Scotsburn had annual sales of more than $150 million.[6]
