Position: Chief Financial Officer

Client: Michigan Milk Producers Association

Michigan Milk Producers Association is the ninth-largest dairy farmer-owned cooperative in the United States, marketing 5 billion pounds of milk annually and producing dairy ingredients, cottage cheese, specialty cheese, fluid milk products, and ice cream at its five facilities across the Midwest.

As MMPA expanded its processing capabilities and advanced new growth initiatives, the cooperative engaged 3P Partners to identify its next Chief Financial Officer.

“3P Partners ran a diligent and streamlined process that included a practical case study, allowing us to assess not only candidates’ experience but also how they think about the business, work through complex decisions, and partner with MMPA’s leadership team and Board”, said Joe Diglio, MMPA President and CEO. “Chad brings strong financial expertise and a strategic perspective to MMPA that is important as we continue to grow and evolve. His experience and perspective will strengthen our financial and technology capabilities as we continue to execute our business strategy, create value for our members, and position MMPA for long-term success.”
