Now in addition, the Belagavi unit will export 20,000 litres of double-toned milk each day. The flexipack unit of Belagavi has the capability to bundle 80,000 litres in step with day.
Officials are busy designing attractive programs for out-of-state merchandise and can get started exporting the milk inside next 15 days. However, packaging of 4,000 litres each day for the local marketplace has begun. Half-litre milk flexipacks are to be had at Rs 22 within the local marketplace.
Ubedullah Khan, managing director of Bemul said: "As per instructions of the Karnataka Milk Federation (KMF), we signed an MoU with the Andhra Pradesh government to supply 20,000 litres of double-toned milk.
