724 was inspired by our founder and 2nd generation, Licensed Wisconsin Cheese Grader, Ken Neumeier. Wisconsin is the only state that requires graders to have a license. Ken's grader number is #724. Ken started out his career sweeping floors at the former Pauly Cheese Company located in Green Bay, Wisconsin. From there, Ken took his career in cheese from floor supervisor, to processor, to seller. In Ken’s 45+ year career in the Dairy Industry he has proudly supported our farmers & cheesemakers & has inspired others to strive for the best quality product while working with integrity & passion. In 2000 he made his vision a reality by creating his own aging & grading company here in North East Wisconsin. Today, along with his family and dedicated staff, he ages and manages millions of pounds of quality aged cheddar cheese. Traditionally sold in bulk across America, 724 retail label was created to be able to give access to the public a quality aged cheddar cheese that Tastes like More. [TM] 724 captures the depth, the flavor & passion behind Ken’s career.
We believe if you are going to do something and be successful at it you need to have passion and be enthusiastic about it. Our passion and pride is quality Aged Cheddar Cheese!
