As a farmer’s rice co-operative, Producers Rice Mill offers foodservice operators the most efficient distribution channel: direct from the grower to the customer. For hundreds of customers across North America – from distributors, foodservice operators, schools and hospitals to caterers and professional chefs – Producers Rice Mill is “the rice supplier of choice.”

Why Rice?
Rice is the most versatile and the least allergenic of all grains. Perfect for entrées, side dishes, salads and desserts, it’s no wonder that rice is the primary dietary staple for more than half the world’s population. To meet that need, U.S. rice farmers annually grow and harvest more than 18 billion pounds of rice – approximately 50% comes from Arkansas farmers – that’s why Arkansas is the No. 1 rice producing U.S.state.
