Every week, dairy news articles circle the impact of the growing milk production in the United States and what factors could possibly help support prices despite the looming supply. The one bright spot helping to elevate the massive supply issue is the extreme growth in exports we’ve seen over the last few years.


In 2025, the United States approached near record export values at a whopping $9.51 billion in dairy products exported. Second to 2022 in dollars of products shipped to other countries. That equates to a 15% increase year over year from 2024 in dollars and 5% more in total volume of dairy products exported.


Currently, the U.S. sells to 143 countries which saw the biggest increase in demand from a wide range of buyers in the Middle East, South Asia, North Africa and South America. We are third largest exporter of dairy products in the world.
