Talk:Borden Dairy

Lack of History
The company was founded in 1857. Why does the "history" section begin in 2001? This needs to be expanded to include more than just current company news.

Disambiguation
The original company was Borden, Inc., founded in 1857. Borden, Inc. had a food products subsidiary, Borden Food Corporation. In 1995, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts bought our Borden, Inc. and took it private. KKR sold off most of Borden, Inc.'s food products and other lines while retaining control of the name and trademarks (such as Elsie the Cow). Borden Milk Products was founded in 2000—not 1857—and is not the successor company to Borden, Inc. Borden Milk products merely licenses the name and trademarks from KKR. Dean Foods also licenses the Borden name and trademarks. This is very confusing, but the Borden, Inc. page clearly delineates the correct history of the company now. - Tim1965 19:55, 24 October 2007 (UTC)


 * It would be less confusing, I think, if this were all in one place -- particularly the successor companies. See how it's done at Nabisco (which has a Mergers section). --Tenebrae 20:24, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Glass bottle
The article says Borden had the first milk bottle in use but it wasn't cited so I added a tag. The article on milk bottles mentions that they don't know when the first one came into use (although they could just not have looked up the information). I was hoping someone could help settle this.

History
There's a History section, but it just describes current company events. No history whatsoever. Rfischer8655 (talk) 20:06, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
