Finally there is good news from Vipul Chaudhary’s camp also. According to a press release sent to Indian Cooperative desk Mehsana District Cooperative Milk Producers’ Union Ltd (Dudhsagar Dairy) has achieved a turnover of Rs.4254.29 crores in the financial year 2013-14, with an impressive 25% growth over the previous year.
Dudhsagar Dairy operates five dairies of which three are large dairies; Mehsana Dairy (25 lac litres per day capacity); Dudhmansagar Dairy, Manesar (10 lac litres per day); and Dudhmotisagar Dairy, Dharuhera (15 lac litres per day, expandable to 30 lac litres).
There are two other dairies at Patan and Kadi with 2 lac litres each per day capacities. Besides, Dudhsagar Dairy has Cattle Feed factories at Jagudan and Ubkal, with a total installed capacity of 1450 MT per day, of which the largest is at Jagudan, having 1000 MT/per day capacity. The release gives detailed output of various plants.
It further claims that Dudhsagar Dairy is the largest cooperative dairy in India in terms of installed capacity. It has 50 lac litres per day capacity, expandable to 65 lac litres per day, of which 25 lac litres per day capacity is at most strategic locations at Manesar and Dharuhera, near Delhi/NCR where Amul Federation is currently marketing around 25 lac litres of milk per day in Amul-brand.
However, at present, only half of GCMMF’s Delhi/NCR requirements are sourced from Dudhsagar dairies. If GCMMF sources more of their milk requirements for Delhi/NCR from our Plants at Manesar and Dharuhera, the turnover of Dudhsagar will increase significantly. It is hoped that in the coming years, our turnover will be much higher, the release concludes.
