NDDB Plans to Expand Amul Model to Kenya, Says Chairman Minesh Shah
Following a successful joint venture in Sri Lanka, the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) aims to extend the Amul model of milk cooperatives to Kenya.
The NDDB, in collaboration with the Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF), signed a stakeholder agreement for the joint venture in Sri Lanka, marking the first international application of the Amul model.
Chairman Minesh Shah expressed hope that the model implemented in Sri Lanka could be replicated to benefit small dairy farmers in Kenya. A delegation from Kenya recently visited NDDB, Amul, Indian Immunologicals, and IDMC Ltd in Anand.
