Under the company’s succession plan, Joe Coote, currently president of Darigold’s Global Ingredients Division, has been promoted to CEO of the 104-year-old dairy coop, one of the largest privately-held businesses in the Pacific Northwest.
“Stan has been a game-changing and transformative leader at Darigold. Under his leadership, our co-op significantly improved its performance, advanced its modernization and growth, re-established its brand and customer franchise, initiated the largest capital investments in our history to solidify the coop, and built and strengthened internal teams to make Darigold a more formidable competitor at home and on the global stage,” said Allan Huttema, chairman of Darigold’s board of directors.
“We are all grateful for Stan’s leadership, character, and personal integrity. He leaves with our deepest respect and gratitude for setting our coop on a trajectory that is commensurate with the underlying values and aspirations of our more than 300 farmer-owners.”
Ryan came to Darigold in 2016 after spending 25 years at Cargill Corporation where he held a variety of senior leadership positions, serving as president or general manager of seven businesses in five countries. Since joining Darigold, Ryan led an effort to modernize and globalize the coop, making investments in the company’s infrastructure, strengthening support functions in its corporate offices, and pledging to make the company carbon neutral by 2050. He redirected the company’s focus to emphasize more smart-value-added and higher-margin products, and in 2021, he finalized a deal to build a new milk protein and butter processing facility in Pasco, Wash.
