“This latest round of funding is a major win for our employees and investors,” he continues, “but most importantly, it allows us to support our incredible partners in getting the right milk to the right place at the right time.”

The team has been exceeding expectations in their rollout to empower new customers with much-needed data and the company is just getting started. I am looking forward to the acceleration of creating distinctive customer value this new investment will enable,” says Cargill.
