Golden Cheese Company of California operates the largest and most sophisticated fully integrated cheese and whey processing facility in the world. A billion pounds of milk is processed each year into a hundred million pounds of premium quality Cheddar, Monterey Jack, Mozzarella, and Reduced Fat Cheeses at the plant in Corona California. In addition to cheese, specialized whey protein concentrate products are produced. These products, are used in baby foods, nutritional formulations, and in many other food products.

All the components of the milk are utilized. Even the residual milk sugar is fermented and distilled into ethyl alcohol which is used as a fuel additive. The remaining milk solids are concentrated into an animal feed. In the end, all that is left of the milk is water which is used in cleaning the plant. Many people ask us if we give plant tours. Normally we can only provide tours for our customers. But now you can join us on a select tour of our plant, previously restricted from outside view. If there are places you would like to see, please drop us a line and we will try to capture it for you and add it to our tour. Enjoy!
