ONE OF THE LAST DAIRIES.
DeMARCO: COME ON, SUZANNE.
SUZANNE: IT'S WHAT'S GOING ON AT
BROGUIRE'S DAIRY.
IT MIGHT GO OUT OF
BUSINESS AFTER BODILY
MELT FOR 100 YEARS.
DeMARCO: THE FAVORITE COULD BE
CLOSING AT CBS2 TINA PATEL LIVE
IN MONTEBELLO WITH WHY THE
BUSINESS COULD BE FACING THE END
OF AN ERA
REPORTER: THE OWNER OF
BROGUIRE'S DAIRY
AND TALK TO ME AND SAID IT'S UP
IN HIS BEEN ABOUT FOR A LONG
TIME AND HE FINALLY REALIZED IT
MAY BE TIME TO SICK ABOUT.
LET'S SHOW YOU A BIT OF
VIDEO WITH HOW POPULAR
THE DAIRY IS.
THE FAMILY STARTED BACK
IN 1920 AND HE SAID THEY
ARE PROUD THEY STILL
THINGS THE OLD-FASHIONED
WAY.
A BIG BOTTLE THEIR MILK
AND GLASS BOTTLES AND
THAT'S WHAT THEY ARE
KNOWN FOR, KNOWN FOR
THEIR CHOCOLATE MILK AND
EGGNOG AND POPULAR WITH
PEOPLE IN SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA, BUT HE SAYS
AS YEARS HAVE GONE BY
ITS GOTTEN HARDER AND
HARDER TO RUN THE DAIRY
NOT JUST BECAUSE A
BIGGER COMPANIES, BUT
ALSO BECAUSE THE
REGULATIONS IN
CALIFORNIA ESPECIALLY
MAKE IT HARDER AND
HARDER TO TURN A PROFIT.
HE SAYS HE'S BEEN
TALKING WITH HIS FAMILY.
HIS SON HAS SAID HE
DOESN'T REALLY WANT TO
GO INTO THE BUSINESS AND
DEAL WITH THE CHANGING
BUSINESS MODELS AND
SENSOR ARRAY IS GETTING
OLDER IN HIS 70s HE'S
THINKING IT MAY BE TIME
TO SAY GOODBYE.
BACK OUT HERE LIVE,
GELSON'S IS ONE OF THE
STORES IN SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA WHERE YOU CAN
GET BROGUIRE'S DAIRY.
THEY ARE GETTING THEIR
LAST SHIPMENT TODAY.
RAY DID NOT KNOW THAT
GELSON'S WOULD TELL
EVERYONE HE WAS THINKING
ABOUT CLOSING AND THAT'S
WHY HE SAID HE DOESN'T
ACTUALLY KNOW WHEN HIS
LAST DAY WILL BE.
HE SAID IS VERY GRATEFUL
FOR ALL OF THE LOYAL
CUSTOMERS SINCE THEY
HEARD THIS WAS A
POSSIBILITY HAVE BEEN
TALKING ABOUT HOW MUCH
THEY LOVE THE PRODUCT
AND SUPPORT THEM.
HE'S TRYING TO FIGURE
OUT WHEN THEY WILL GET
THEIR LAST SHIPMENT IN,
BUT UNFORTUNATELY THE
BAD NEWS IS HE SAID HE'S
ALREADY SOLD OUT OF THE
CHOCOLATE MILK, WHICH I
KNOW IS A HUGE FAVORITE.
THE REGULAR MILK AND
SOME OF THE OTHER
PRODUCTS, BUT IF YOU
WANT IT YOU WILL HAVE TO
COME DOWN TO MONTEBELLO
