HARMONY CREAMERY COMPANY The Harmony Creamery Company was organized in the City of Pittsburgh in the year 1893 by the deceased President, B. F. Otto, in conjunction with his four sons, three of whom survive and two continue to conduct the business. The Com- pany was incorporated in 1908, taking the name of the home town wherein the father and sons were born and raised, with capital of $50,000.
