Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Notability City Dairy Company Limited was a dairy products firm that was established to deliver high-quality milk in the city of Toronto, Ontario.[1][2] It was founded by Walter Massey (1864–1901), the president of Massey-Harris and a member of the prominent Massey family. The company was the first Canadian dairy to supply pasteurized milk.[1]

The company was founded after Massey opened his Dentonia Park farm in 1897 and raised a herd of dairy cattle.[1] The milk from these cows was sent to a dairy plant at 487 and 563 Spadina Crescent, later known as the Borden Buildings.

By 1915, City Dairy controlled 40 per cent of the milk market in Toronto.[3] Although Massey had died in 1901, the dairy operation continued until it was sold to Borden in 1930 for $7 million.
