Jon Spainhour is a Senior Broker and Partner at Ever.ag, one of the most influential firms in global dairy risk management.

He later joined Rice Dairy, where he worked closely with major players like Ausfine to unlock US cheese export potential — well before it became mainstream.Now part of Ever.ag, Jon works across global markets, helping clients navigate futures, options, and the increasingly strategic role of risk management in dairy.
