USI Cheese Competition

Spring 2024

The Only International Cheese Competition Judged By Real Trade Buyers
Unfortunately due to logistics we are working on a new date…more to come. We are excited to bring our competition philosophy of trade buyers only judging to the Cheese Industry. It is our belief that trade buyers truly know what consumers want and what they will buy at what price. Expert buyers will be blind tasting the vetted samples and will know the category, the place of origin and the retail price.
