Our Story:
Leprino Foods' history dates back over 65 years, when Jim Leprino first
started making small batches of mozzarella for local markets and eateries in
the Little Italy neighborhood of Denver. We've grown a bit since then.
Today, Leprino is the world's largest manufacturer of mozzarella and
lactose, and a leading producer of whey protein. Still owned by Jim and the
Leprino family, our sights are set to be the "World's Best Dairy Food
and Ingredient Company." To help us achieve that bold vision, we're
looking for our secret ingredient: You. A motivated team member who is the
best at what you do. Three people in a small corner grocery store in the early
1950s have now grown to over 4,300 employees throughout 16 global locations.
