Oberweis Dairy, headquartered in North Aurora, Illinois, is the parent company of several dairy-related operations in the midwest region of the United States. Its businesses include a home delivery service available in parts of Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Michigan, and Wisconsin, which delivers traditional dairy products, including milk, ice cream, cheese, and yogurt, as well as bacon and seasonal products. The businesses also include a chain of corporate-owned "Dairy and Ice Cream Stores", in the Chicago area, which sell many of the same products as the home delivery service, a distribution service which allows for some of their products (such as milk) to be available in regional supermarkets, and also includes a franchise service, which has seen the "Dairy and Ice Cream Stores" expand into Wisconsin, Indiana, Missouri,and Michigan since 2004. The firm is privately owned, largely by the Oberweis family.〔http://www.oberweis.com〕 == History ==
The business was started in 1915 by Peter J. Oberweis, who made a profit by selling milk to his neighbors in Kane County, Illinois. According to the Dairy's website, the family's farm was off of Molitor Road, in Aurora, Illinois. The family used a horse and carriage to deliver milk to their neighbors, beginning in 1927, after Peter J. Oberweis invested in half of the business of the Big Woods Dairy.〔 The business continued in the family, with Peter's son, Joe, running the business through the 1950s. Current owner, Jim Oberweis, took over the company in the 1980s, moved the plant from Aurora to its current location in North Aurora in the 1990s, (which also housed the offices of Jim's 'Oberweis Asset Management' company until 2006), and began expansion of the businesses in retail and franchising.〔
