Founded in 1993 (with predecessor operations dating to 1971), Ultima Foods is owned by Quebec-based dairy company Agropur. In 2017, the company had 660 employees across the country and annual sales in excess of CA$ 300 million.[1] The company launched the iögo brand of yogurt and fresh dairy products in Canada in mid-August 2012,[2][3] and also owns and operates the Olympic brand of dairy products. Ultima Foods also continues to manufacture (but no longer directly sells) Yoplait-branded products in Canada . HistoryIn 1971, the Quebec-based Coopérative agricole de Granby (renamed Agropur in 1979)[4] obtained the Canadian licence to manufacture and market Yoplait products.[5] In 1993, Agropur's yogurt manufacturing and marketing operations were combined with those of Agrifoods, a federal cooperative owned by 2,500 dairy producers in Alberta, British Columbia and Saskatchewan, forming Ultima Foods. In 2004, Ultima Foods acquired Olympic Dairy, a manufacturer of premium natural cultured dairy, organic and soy products. For over 30 years, Olympic has produced over 140 different products in a variety of sizes and flavours.[6] On May 8 2012, Ultima and Yoplait announced they were restructuring their relationship. As of September 1, 2012, General Mills (the brand's longtime United States licensee, and since 2011 a 50% shareholder in the international Yoplait brand) has taken over as the Canadian licensee of the Yoplait brand. Ultima continues to produce Yoplait-branded products at its Granby, Quebec plant, but these products are now marketed and sold by General Mills.[7] Simultaneously, Ultima Foods announced plans to begin producing and marketing its own brand of yogurt and fresh dairy products in Canada, starting in mid-August 2012, later revealed to be iögo (pronounced "yo-go").[2] The new product line is, according to Ultima, "entirely created and manufactured in Canada and [includes] a full and original line of products and flavours that suit the tastes of Canadian consumers."[8] On August 31, 2017, Agropur and Agrifoods announced that they had concluded an agreement pursuant to which Agropur would become the sole owner of Ultima Foods, subject to regulatory approval.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|url=http://www.agropur.com/wp/en/agropur-acquires-agrifoods-interest-in-ultima-foods/|title=Agropur Acquires Agrifoods' Interest in Ultima Foods|author=Agropur|date=2017-08-31|accessdate=2017-09-02}} 2. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.cipo.ic.gc.ca/app/opic-cipo/trdmrks/srch/vwTrdmrk.do?lang=eng&status=&fileNumber=1582273|title=Canadian Trade-mark Data: Application no. 1582273|work=Canadian Trade-marks Database|publisher=Canadian Intellectual Property Office|accessdate=2012-08-11}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://ultimayog.ca/static/docs/en/BusinessProfile.pdf|title=Company Profile|author=Ultima Foods|accessdate=2012-08-11}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.agropur.com/en/our-cooperative/our-logo|title=The logo's history|author=Agropur|accessdate=2019-02-15}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.ultimayog.ca/en/company/story-and-milestones/|title=Ultima Story|author=Ultima Foods|accessdate=2019-02-15}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.olympicdairy.com/produits|title=Olympic Products|author=Olympic|accessdate=2019-02-15}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.newswire.ca/news-releases/ultima-and-yoplait-resolve-issues-successfully-reach-agreement-510200961.html|title=Ultima and Yoplait resolve issues, successfully reach agreement|author=Yoplait SAS|date=2012-05-08|accessdate=2012-08-11}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.newswire.ca/news-releases/ultima-foods-launches-its-own-brand-of-yogurt-in-canada-and-reaches-an-agreement-with-yoplait-510200511.html|title=Ultima Foods launches its own brand of yogurt in Canada and reaches an agreement with Yoplait|author=Ultima Foods|date=2012-05-08|accessdate=2012-08-11}} External links
