Steiner Cheese is Ohio Proud

We are proud to announce that Steiner Cheese has recently become a licensed partner in the Ohio Department of Agriculture's "OHIO PROUD program".

OHIO PROUD is a marketing program that works to increase awareness of agricultural and food products that are raised, grown or processed right here in Ohio. OHIO PROUD companies employ more than 27,000 Ohioans. By promoting Ohio companies and locally produced goods, OHIO PROUD helps to protect security for working Ohioans and to strengthen state and local economies.

OHIO PROUD also provides a valuable consumer service. Retailers throughout Ohio are displaying the distinctive OHIO PROUD logo to make it easier for shoppers to identify licensed OHIO PROUD products. Why is this important? In a statewide survey of 400 Ohio consumers, 75 percent stated that if cost and quality are the same, they prefer to purchase Ohio-made products rather than products from out-of-state competitors.

We at Steiner Cheese are excited about our new OHIO PROUD affiliation, and we encourage other local food and agriculture companies to join the OHIO PROUD team.

Consumers who want more information about OHIO PROUD products, or companies interested in joining OHIO PROUD, should call 1-800-IM PROUD (1-800-476-7683). Or call us here at Steiner Cheese, and we will be happy to tell your more about the benefits of being OHIO PROUD.
