A few months ago we took the initiative to get in touch with Culture Cheese Magazine, America’s first cheese-devoted magazine, to help spread the word about Invest In Cheese.

A unique initiative to Eastern, Ontario Invest In Cheese was launched last year to take advantage of the high groth opportunitiy in small scale and artisan cheese. This industry is currently a $300 million category in Ontario. Over the next decade, this number is expected to grow to $400 million.
The current market share of the Ontario artisan cheese industry is approximately $5 million and over the next 10 years there is an opportunity to increase the production and distribution of artisan cheese to capture a larger share of the market.
For more than a century, Eastern Ontario has been known for its cheese and combining the already existing cheese facilities in the Four-County Region, along with the knowledge of this growth opportunity, makes the region an area full of passionate and successful cheesemakers with room for many more.
One of the first steps the four Counties took together was to develop a website that focused on artisan cheese to help investors establish themselves here. Thus Invest In Cheese was born.
Last week I was like a kid on candy when the magazine arrived with our information in it. It was an exciting step in our direction forward. Here is the article snippit.

In other news, as you will have noticed, our website has had a bit of a makeover recently. Please take a little tour around and let us know what you think, we weclome your comments.
