Leprino Foods

Leprino Foods began over 70 years ago in the early 1950s, when founder Jim Leprino started crafting small batches of mozzarella for local markets and eateries in Denver’s Little Italy. From these humble beginnings in a small corner grocery store, Leprino Foods has grown to become the world’s largest manufacturer of mozzarella and a leading producer of high-quality dairy ingredients, including whey protein, lactose, and micellar casein. Still family-owned, our mission is to sustainably feed and nourish families around the globe.

As a global leader in dairy foods and ingredients, we are driven by a commitment to excellence and innovation, aspiring to be the World’s Best Dairy Food and Ingredient Company. Our dedicated team of over 5,000 employees worldwide upholds a culture of quality and impact, ensuring our products reach tables across the globe.
