Oct. 16, 2014, Toronto – Domino's Pizza of Canada has committed to using only cheese made from 100 per cent
Canadian milk on all its pizzas and other menu items.
The company, based in
Leamington, Ont., has entered a partnership with Dairy
Farmers of Canada by committing to using only cheese made from 100 per cent
Canadian milk on all its pizzas and other menu items. Domino's is the
first national pizza company in Canada to have made this commitment, said a news release from the company.
"Domino's decision to only use cheese made from 100 per cent Canadian milk is a
natural one," said Michael Curran, president of Domino's Pizza of
Canada, in the release. "Domino's is a strong believer in fresh, high quality and local
products and is a proud supporter of Canadian dairy farmers."
Domino's commitment is expected to have a positive impact on the Canadian dairy
industry given that the pizza company purchases over 4.8 million kilogram of
cheese each year for use in its menu items.
"We are proud that Domino's has made this commitment to our Canadian
dairy farmers," said Wally Smith, president of Dairy Farmers of Canada.
"Canada has some of the greatest cheeses in the world, and with good
reason, since its main ingredient, 100 per cent Canadian milk, is renowned for
its high quality, purity and great taste."
Canadians will now see the 100 per cnet Canadian milk symbol on all Domino's
menus, pizza boxes and on its website.
