Fox River Dairy

We Locally Source Products for the St. Louis Metro Area
Fox River Dairy is a specialty food distributor for grocery and foodservice operations of all kinds. Our story starts in 1910 at Union Market in downtown St. Louis. At that time, we were a liquid dairy stand in the famous open-air market at the corner of North Broadway and Convention Plaza, established by the Milton Krai family. After two generations of Krais, the company was sold to Don Pogue in 1980. The Pogue family operated Fox River until 1996, switching focus to foodservice cheeses and specialty products. In 1996, Ken and Dan Probst took over and doubled down on the cheeses and specialty ingredients to include a new focus on locally sourced products for foodservice and grocery items.

Over the last decade, Fox River has grown from 8 employees to 27 through the growth of the St. Louis local food scene. We now distribute products for more than 30 different producers headquartered in St. Louis and the Midwest. We are committed to the continuous growth of this movement as it becomes more important to impact our local economy with a smaller carbon footprint.

This formula brings you a source for the best brands of over 500 unique high-quality products. With many products exclusive to our company, you are sure to find the ingredients for success in your kitchen or for your grocery shelves.
