Friesland Coberco Dairy Foods Holding N.V.
 PROFILE
Friesland Coberco Dairy Foods Holding could do a body good. Formed in 1997 from the merger of two Dutch dairies, the company produces a range of cheese, condensed milk, milk, yogurt, shelf-stable items, and fruit-based drinks for European, Middle Eastern, and Southeast Asian markets. Friesland Coberco operates in about 70 countries, selling its goods under brands such as Dutch Lady, Frico, and Friesche Vlag. A restructuring of its Friesland International subsidiary in 2000 increased the dairy's seven operating companies to nine and positioned the company to develop its business in Southeast Asia. Dutch dairy farm cooperative Zuivelcoöperatie De Zeven Provinciën, which has more than 13,000 members, owns the company.
