摘要

Agri-Mark has done more than its share to change the United States' reputation from a casual exporter dabbling in foreign markets to a major player on the world stage. In fact, Agri-Mark's passion for exports, success in building its now-sizable international business and extensive precompetitive efforts to elevate whey protein as a high-value ingredient are why Dairy Foods named the company the recipient of the 2013 Tom Camerlo Exporter of the Year award.
