Actividad
CADÍ, founded in 1915 and located in Seu d'Urgell, was the first dairy cooperative to be created in Spain and since then has had a fundamental role in the roots and vertebration of the population in the Pyrenees. The Cooperative is nourished by the milk produced by its livestock partners in the counties of Alt Urgell and Cerdanya. This territory stands out for its valleys and banks of a generous and well-preserved nature, rich in flora and green pastures, which allow to obtain a milk of ideal characteristics for the elaboration of cheese and butter.
Historia
The cooperative was founded in 1915 by a group of farmers led by Josep Zulueta i Gomis, with the goal of improving life in the mountainous regions through milk production and processing. Over more than 100 years, it has experienced periods of cooperation, crisis, growth, modernization, and internationalization, earning recognition such as Protected Designation of Origin for its products. In 2015, it celebrated its centenary and continues to consolidate and expand, with a presence in national and international markets.
Tipo de productos
The company primarily produces butter and a wide variety of cheeses, including fresh, traditional, national, Pyrenean, and international specialties, as well as ready-to-cook products such as grated and processed cheeses. Among its most notable products are Mantega Cadí and Neu del Cadí cheese.
Misión
The company's fundamental purpose is to keep the Alt Urgell and Cerdanya regions alive, preserving the agricultural and livestock traditions and contributing to the region's economic, social, and environmental development. Its vision is to continue being a benchmark in sustainable and cooperative dairy production, with a positive impact on the region and its people.
