Committed to the future of dairy

In 2017, entrepreneurial dairy farmer John de Jonge and commercial dairy innovator Yoav Levsky realized traditional distributor models in the dairy industry were not keeping up with the pace of change.

In three years they assembled five service locations in North America and are actively growing their geographic reach in order to achieve a local presence in as many markets as possible.

Their first location was Saskview Dairy Solutions in Saskatchewan, Canada. They used this location to get an understanding of how the dealer network worked. Very quickly they realized they needed more horsepower and distribution, so they teamed up with Kevin Fiske, one of the most successful electrical contractors in the United States. As a dairy farmer and entrepreneur, Kevin loved the vision and decided to start a dealership together in Colorado.

Kevin, Yoav and John then acquired an additional dealership in Colorado as well as a dealership in Idaho.

To leverage new technology, logistics and buying power, they formed TDS (Total Dairy Solutions) in 2019.

Realizing they were growing quickly, and the demands of the distribution network required a broader reach, they decided to reach out to the largest dealership in North America – Modesto Dairy Solutions. Jake Dewitt and Ryan Calistro, the owners of Modesto Dairy Solutions, bought into the vision immediately and brought their dealership under the Total Dairy Solutions umbrella.

All 5 owners now fully assembled their separate talents to set a path forward to lead an industry change, instead of reacting to it. All in an effort to better serve our customer base now, in the future, and beyond with a mission to become the largest global distributor of dairy service equipment.

In 2020 we formed an exclusive global partnership to sell and implement innovative hydroponic feed technologies from CubicFarms (human) and HydroGreen (animal).

The company is also pioneering other sustainable solutions for the dairy industry involving wind power, anaerobic digesters, and solar power.

We see the opportunity to enable dairy producers to become leaders in sustainable food production.

By integrating technology, equipment, strategic expertise, and services in one company we can help dairy producers transform their operations, no matter the size.

By developing experienced staff at locations near producers, we can ensure seamless service.

By building deep relationships with manufacturers, suppliers, retailers, processors, and producers, we can anticipate trends, pioneer new technologies and maximize opportunities for the dairy industry.

TDS is poised to build a global network of dairy distributors and dealers starting with North American expansion leveraging relationships with large dairy equipment providers.

This scale will enable more access to the best manufacturers, increased buying power, access to training, and technology for more large-scale projects.Governments across the globe are developing new legislation on waste and energy management on farms from Climate Change Acts.

The agriculture industry will be looking for solutions and the expertise to design, build, manage and implement on their behalf. TDS is pioneering innovative and sustainable solutions for the dairy industry and working directly with these suppliers on sales, service, and installation.
