ABOUT HP HOOD LLC
Hood traces to 1846, when Harvey Perley Hood began a milk delivery business in Charlestown, Massachusetts. His son Charles joined in 1880, forming HP Hood and Sons, and the company grew into one of the largest dairy processors in the United States. Ownership passed from Agway to the Kaneb family in 1995, and Hood remains privately held. Its brands include Hood, Lactaid, and Heluva Good, and it operates manufacturing plants across multiple states, producing milk, cream, and other dairy products.
