Our Story:
In March 1981, Len Paolillo co-founded Rosev Dairy Foods, Inc. located in Boston, MA and became the Chief Executive Officer. In 1988, Len created Milky & several characters of the Milkcase Gang. At this time, Rosev Dairy was affiliated with H.P. Hood and Cumberland Farms which led to the creation of a private label milk featuring Milky. Milky would be the first full figured animated cartoon character on a Milk Label in the United States and was a huge success in the Boston market. Len's son, Jonathan, who grew up in the food business, created several other characters. In May 2004, Len sold his interest in Rosev Dairy Foods.
Both Len and Jonathan graduated from Bentley College, Waltham, Massachusetts with major degrees in Accounting and minors in U.S. History; Len is also a Certified Public Accountant which brings together the creative and practical sides of the company. Both grew up with a fondness for animation, enjoying the products from the major animation studios.
On September 4, 2007, Len and Jonathan Paolillo officially formed their new business, Milkcase Gang Productions, LLC, with the intention of expanding into the world of education using animation as a platform on their website: www.MilkcaseGang.com; and recently formed a business consulting division, The Paolillo Financial Planning Group, to assist small business owners: www.PFPGroupUSA.com. The corporate office is in Sherborn, Massachusetts and the distribution facility is in Medfield, MA.
In January 2010, Jonathan and Len decided to return to the Food Business establishing their brand, Milky's Northeast Creamery. Milkcase Gang Productions, LLC has formed an alliance with Hebert Confections, LLC of Shrewsbury, MA which is manufacturing Premium Candy Bars bearing the Milky's Northeast Creamery Logo and an image of Milky. All Natural Chocolate Bars can now be found in several Whole Food Stores. Len and Jonathan plan to expand into other private label food lines, and to open gourmet ice cream and coffee cafes. In May 2010, Milky's Northeast Creamery became a Full Dairy Distributor and Agent for Byrne Dairy, a major New York milk processor.
Over the past few years Milky's Northeast Creamery has extended its product lines to include all refrigerated and frozen items, paper and plastic cups/plates and most products used by Foodservice operators.

Milkcase Gang Productions, LLC has expanded into the animation business and has published its first book, Journey to the Rainbow's End, which can be viewed in its entirety on the MilkcaseGang.com website. As Walt Disney once said, "I only hope that we never lose sight of one thing - that it was all started by a mouse." Maybe one day they'll be able to say the same about us, but this time that it was all started by a milk bottle.
