Banquet Cheese - Company Overview

A Nelson-Ricks Creamery Company

Nelson-Ricks Creamery Company was founded in 1907 with two spring delivery wagons, one horse and harness, and a registered brand name for butter. The production of cheese now accounts for the majority of the company's business. From Banquet, a pioneer producer and "The House That Built Jack," comes a marvelous variety of Monterey Jack Cheese.

Banquet is largely responsible for the acceptance of Monterey Jack cheese from coast-to-coast. Through the years, Banquet has continued its growth, offering customers Longhorn cheese with the same quality as its other products. The company markets products throughout the Western United States under the Banquet and Banquet Cheese labels.

Today, Nelson-Ricks Creamery Company produces a large variety of products offering the customer a full line of cheese items.

The trend in the cheese industry has been to consolidate facilities, and from its original twelve plants, Nelson-Ricks today operates two efficient facilities: one in Utah and one in Idaho.

Nelson-Ricks continues to grow through research and development of new products. We look forward to working with our customers and the many opportunities that lie ahead.
