In 1997,
Vreba-Hoff Dairy, LLC was formed to build a state-of-the-art 3,000-cow
dairy facility. This venture is unique in its origins because it brought
together two dairy farm families operating on opposite sides of the Atlantic
Ocean. By drawing upon their combined experiences and expertise in dairy
operation, the two families were able to integrate dairy innovations from
both the Netherlands and the United States.
Following the development
of the dairy, the business recognized an opportunity to meet the demand
of Dutch dairy producers desiring to construct new dairy enterprises and
established Vreba-Hoff Dairy Development LLC in 1998.
Since then, Vreba-Hoff
Dairy Development has successfully brokered several new dairy enterprises
and through the process realized there was another unserved need in the
market - large-scale dairy facility leases. After further researching
the market, Vreba-Hoff Dairy Leasing was established in 2000 to provide
dairy producers with alternatives to traditional bank financing.
Vreba-Hoff has also
partnered with Agrotransfer Emigration Services in the Netherlands to
provide a training program for families preparing to immigrate to the
US. The training program includes courses such as language, culture, and
management.
