Dairy Diary

Supply chains for the food industry can be complex due to shelf life and health regulations. Ensuring the right item gets to the right place at the right time is critical, especially for dairy. 

Keeping track of payments, loads, haulers, or anyone involved in your dairy supply chain can become complicated, but it doesn’t have to be. Milk Moovement features help users manage their finances and keep the milk flowing.

Dairy is an industry that never sleeps, so having support around the clock is critical. That’s why Milk Moovement has live customer support from coast to coast, available 24/7, 365 days a year.

As we get into the new year, a few changes are coming to the dairy industry. This year is expected to face a few challenges, but there are opportunities within the market.

Milk Moovement has seen a lot of changes, challenges, and growth throughout 2022. Similarly, the dairy industry can be challenging, but we are aiming to make it easier. Co-founders Rob Forsythe, CEO, and Jon King, CPO, have a few reflections on this year and what the future holds for the company. 

Cows come in many shapes and sizes, and breeds! The number of recognized cattle breeds varies, but it is estimated that there are over 250 different types of cows worldwide. There are Holsteins, Jerseys, the Brown cow who makes chocolate milk (we all wish that was true), and more.

Each breed has different benefits due to its genetic makeup, which allows them to have different purposes like dairy, work, or meat. Different species of cows are fit for certain climates, so the location of the cow and breed are just some of the things to consider when picking a herd.

Here are a few facts about different cow breeds.

As Milk Moovement grows, ensuring users' needs are met and that we stay organized is essential.
