Automatic Milk Packaging for better business prospects

As per the National Dairy Development Board and Crisil research estimates, Indiaproduces around 3.80 million litres per day (LPD) of milk, accounting for a fifth of global output. About 40 per cent of this is retained by producers (farmers) for household consumption. Another 41 per cent share is with the unorganised segment. The remaining 19 per cent is procured, processed and sold through organised dairies.

According to a Business Standard review last year, as the Rs 4 lakh-crore Indian dairy industry catches the fancy of corporate giants, the sector is estimated to see investments worth Rs 9,000-10,000 crore over the next five years.

Besides multinational players, new Indian companies are jumping to grab a share of this growing market, albeit with a regional, paced-out approach. For example, Mahindra & Mahindra have recently launched its Saboro brand in Indore with liquid poly-pouch milk. The company plans to introduce value-added products like ghee, curd, lassi and buttermilk later. 

FMCG major, ITC has forayed into dairy with Aashirvaad Svasti pure cow ghee. ITC has set up a dairy plant in Munger and the ghee was launched in select southern markets as the company is taking a regional approach and the ghee is customised to cater to local preferences.
