Darigold Inc., the processing and marketing arm of the Northwest Dairy Association (NDA), has named Amy Humphreys to the role of chief executive officer. Humphreys previously served as its chief financial officer from 2015 to 2018 and will begin her new role on October 1.
Humphreys succeeds Allan Huttema, who led the company through a pivotal period beginning in 2023, and will return to his Idaho dairy farm as an NDA member-owner.
Tim Kuenzi, chairman of Darigold's board and an NDA member in Oregon, said, "Amy brings a proven track record in leadership with vertically integrated food businesses like Darigold, and a keen focus on business performance, responsible and sustainable resource management, value expansion, and business transformation – all critical skills as Darigold continues our transformation aimed at modernisation and growth.”
Humphreys takes on the CEO role as the company opens a new production facility in Pasco, Wash., and works to drive growth opportunities and efficiencies afforded by the new plant.
"Amy is the right leader for our company as we begin this important chapter. Allan stepped in at a critical time, and we made some significant progress under his leadership – standing up Pasco, improving operations, and strengthening our already capable leadership team. I know I speak for our full board in wishing him well as he returns to his life as a dairyman, and in welcoming Amy back to the Darigold team," concluded Kuenzi.
