About Us!

In 1887, our founder, James Hewitt, began delivering
milk to the people of Hagersville with a horse-drawn
Democrat. The ladies would bring their pitchers to be
filled from the milk cans on the back of James' wagon.
They had a choice of night or morning milk; the night
milk would have the cream already on top!

All the milk was processed and produced at the Hewitt Family farm until 1950. At
that time the dairy cattle were sold and a new plant was built at 128 King Street
East in Hagersville, where we are still located to this day. In 1980 this plant was
replaced with a larger, modern processing facility needed for an expanding market.
Further expansions and renovations took place in 1991 and 1992 to accommodate
larger refrigeration storage areas, larger office spaces, expanded warehouses and
a bottle filling operation.

The popular Hewitt's Dairy Bar is located north of Hagersville on Highway #6,
where it opened in 1962. Some of this country's finest frozen dairy products
are manufactured at this facility, offering more than 50 fine ice cream flavours.
