Take the 2024 State of the U.S. Artisan and Specialty Cheese Industry Survey

Owners, managers, and cheesemakers at U.S. cheesemaking businesses are invited to participate in a survey about the current state of the U.S. artisan, farmstead, and specialty cheese industry. The survey will ask you about your operations, food safety practices, marketing practices, and production.

Your participation will help our research partners collect and analyze critical data about the U.S. cheese industry. The survey data will enable our industry to communicate its impact to policymakers, the media, regulators, and other stakeholders, and to better advocate on behalf of cheesemakers.

If you are a cheesemaker and you haven’t yet participated in the survey, please click on the button below. No personally identifiable information will be associated with your responses in any reports of the survey data. Responding takes about 30 minutes.
