Because of Dairy Farmers of America, Inc.'s (DFA) sound financial practices, the cooperative continues to be rewarded with solid investment grade credit ratings from Standard & Poor's and Moody's Investors Service.

Since its formation in 1998, DFA has maintained investment grade, long-term corporate credit ratings that are some of the highest ratings given to U.S. businesses.

The importance of maintaining sound credit ratings cannot be overstated. A solid credit history and an excellent credit rating mean that DFA is viewed as a viable business entity by the financial community.

These credit ratings demonstrate DFA’s ongoing financial strength and keep us on firm financial ground to invest in growing markets and build business opportunities that benefit DFA’s dairy farm families.
