 PROFILE
To pizza chains such as Domino's, Pizza Hut, and Little Caesar, Leprino Foods really is the big cheese. The company is the world's largest maker of mozzarella cheese, which it sells to pizza chains and food manufacturers. Leprino's other dairy products include premium block mozzarella and provolone, as well as sweet whey, whey protein concentrate, and lactose for use in animal feeds, baby formula, and baked goods. The firm gets its milk supply from the nation's large dairy co-ops. Subsidiary Leprino Transportation Company operates refrigerated tractor trailers that transport the company's products nationwide. Italian immigrant Michael Leprino Sr. founded the company in 1950. It is still owned by the Leprino family.
