The West Assam Milk Producers’ Co-operative Union Ltd (WAMUL), which operates under the brand Purabi Dairy, on Sunday said it has joined hands with the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) to double production to 3 lakh litres per day.
The two organisations signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) at the recent ‘Advantage Assam 2.0’ business summit for the Guwahati-based milk producer’s expansion exercise.
“The expansion project, estimated at Rs 100 crore, will increase Purabi Dairy’s Panjabari plant’s capacity from 1.5 LLPD to 3 LLPD, ensuring a steady supply of quality dairy products to meet growing consumer demand,” WAMUL said in a statement.
It will also see an increase in fermented milk product capacity from 20 metric tonnes per day (MTPD) to 50 MTPD and the establishment of a new ice cream plant with a capacity of 20 TLPD.
Along with enhancing the supply chain, this will also ensure better returns for dairy farmers through value-added products, the company said.
