Orangeville, ON – The new Orangeville location will mark an expansion of the enterprise. "We are very excited about expanding our operations and opening a facility in Orangeville," said Quality Cheese Director of Operations Joe Borgo. "The Orangeville plant is ideally located in proximity to our milk suppliers and is well-appointed to support our future expansion plans."
With historical roots in the local area, the Orangeville location was a natural choice for Quality Cheese Inc. After making cheese with his own father in the mountains of Asiago, Italy, Almerigo Borgo immigrated to Canada and started his cheese production business just outside of Orangeville in 1957. Working with local dairy farmers and the Orangeville-based dairy, Mr. Borgo grew the business with an unwavering commitment to hard work and the production of quality products.
Today, the fourth-generation family business is located in Vaughan, Ontario, and is managed by Almerigo's three sons, William, Albert and Joe. Quality Cheese manufactures over a dozen specialty cheeses under its own Bella Casara and Albert's Leap brands as well as other food brands. Commitment to hard work and quality product remains evident in the high level of enthusiasm in the current generation of Borgo owners. By blending traditional recipes with contemporary manufacturing processes to create authentic and innovative products, the business has continued to flourish. Among its many awards and accolades, Quality Cheese Inc. won two firsts in the very prestigious, biennial Canadian Grand Prix Competition, winning the both the Grand Champion and the best-in-show titles for excellence — the first time an Ontario-based cheese manufacturer has won since the competition began in 1998.
"Orangeville is a perfect place for premium quality food production facilities like this. Quality Cheese's new Orangeville location ideally places them between rural Ontario's agricultural production and the greater Toronto area market. Their location is also well situated to access the entire North American market," said Mayor Jeremy Williams. "Orangeville is greatly looking forward to the Borgo family's return to our area, and we look forward to their continued success."
