Royal Crest Dairy established
in 1927, a family business owned by Paul R.
Miller, will celebrate 84 years as
Colorado's leading home delivery dairy in
2011. In addition, Paul R. Miller is
the grandson of Paul Silas Miller who
started the Miller Sanitary Dairy in 1910,
delivering milk by horse and buggy. On
behalf of all Royal Crest Dairy employees
and their families, we extend our
congratulations to the Miller family for
their 100 years of serving milk to
Colorado's families.

The Miller family
has been delivering milk to Colorado
families for over 100 years. Miller's
Sanitary Dairy, founded by Paul Silas Miller
in 1910, was located on the west side of the
Platte River near Evans Avenue. Mr. Miller
took care of the entire operation in one
24-hour period. He would milk the cows,
bottle the milk and make deliveries to his
customers every day.

Royal Crest Dairy
was founded in 1927 by Mr. & Mrs. Sam
Thomas. The Miller family purchased Royal
Crest in 1965. Under the leadership of Paul
R. Miller, Royal Crest has maintained the
same commitment to high quality dairy
products followed by Mr. Paul Silas Miller
100 years ago. Today we have branches in
Denver, Longmont, and Colorado Springs
providing Colorado families with the highest
quality milk and freshest dairy products
available. |

Royal Crest
Dairy's plant operation was located at 350
S. Pearl Street in Denver, Colorado for over
73 years. This new, state of the art
processing facility was opened December,
1999 in Longmont, CO. The project architect
for the new plant reported that "this new
facility, eight times the size of the old
plant, is one of the dairy industry's most
highly functional and appealing facilities."
This plant will allow Royal Crest Dairy to
continue to provide the highest quality
product for future generations.
