Dairy Sustainability Alliance®

Through the Dairy Sustainability Alliance, the Innovation Center for U.S. Dairy convenes leaders to improve, measure, and communicate dairy’s progress in a sustainable food system. This collaboration helps align action, accountability, and shared learning across the value chain.

Our Collaborative Approach

Collaboration at scale is essential to advancing U.S. dairy’s social responsibility priorities. Through the Dairy Sustainability Alliance®, the Innovation Center for U.S. Dairy convenes more than 200 companies and organizations across the dairy value chain in a precompetitive forum dedicated to shared progress, transparency, and continuous improvement.

The Dairy Sustainability Alliance® provides a structured space for stakeholder input and alignment, where members:

  • Convene to share knowledge
  • Collaborate on issues and opportunities that affect the entire industry
  • Accelerate progress toward common sustainability priorities and goals
  • Contribute to the long-term viability of the U.S. dairy industry

Through in-person meetings, webinars, and newsletters, members contribute subject matter expertise, inform goal setting and measures of progress, and collaborate on a shared journey of continuous improvement.

Representing the Breadth of U.S. Dairy

Dairy Sustainability Alliance® members represent all aspects of U.S. dairy. This cross section of more than 200 companies and organizations is committed to being leaders in dairy sustainability while demonstrating their desire and ability to further the dairy community’s collective social responsibility efforts.
