TB Coop Dairy (994.70.36b)

Thunder Bay Co-op Dairy was founded in 1928 by a group of local farmers, and a large plant was constructed on the corner of Queen and Henry (later Secord) streets.

Money was short and construction was done largely by volunteers who provided labour and materials.

Strict new regulations in the 1960s forced the company to sell its operations to Palm Dairy in 1969.
