Amul Launches Fresh Milk in US Following Modi's Global Ambition

A month after PM Narendra Modi asked Amul to emerge as world's largest dairy, 'The Taste of India' has taken a big leap by launching fresh milk in US. This is the first time that Amul's fresh milk range has been launched outside India.

Partnership of Gujarat Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF) and Michigan Milk Producers Association (MMPA), US's tenth-largest dairy cooperative, was announced at MMPA's 108th annual meeting at Novi, Michigan, on Thursday.

This is a continuation of Amul's relations with Michigan. Dr Verghese Kurien, founder-chairman of GCMMF, was an alumnus of Michigan State University. "This will ensure all our American and Indian consumers are nourished and energised with the goodness of Amul milk," Jayen Mehta, managing director of GCMMF, told TOI.
