Founded in 1982 by Rafael Mendez, Tropical Cheese Industries has grown from a local milk delivery route into one of the largest and most respected manufacturers of Hispanic-style dairy products in the United States. Headquartered in Perth Amboy, New Jersey, the company is the category leader on the East Coast, known for its unwavering commitment to authenticity and traditional family recipes.
Tropical Cheese operates a state-of-the-art, SQF-certified manufacturing facility where it produces a vast portfolio of authentic Latino products, including:
Signature Cheeses: Market favorites like Queso de Freír (renowned for its perfect frying consistency), Queso Blanco, and traditional Queso Fresco en Hoja de Plátano (wrapped in banana leaves).
Dairy & Creams: A full range of authentic Hispanic cremas, yoghurts, and milk products.
Expanded Portfolio: Through the 2026 acquisition of Cibao Meat Products, Tropical now offers a comprehensive line of premium Hispanic meats (including the Induveca and Campesino brands), alongside seafood, tortillas, and beverages.
With a robust direct-store-delivery (DSD) network and a presence in major retailers like Costco, ShopRite, and Sam’s Club, Tropical Cheese serves millions of households across the U.S., Caribbean, and Europe.
