ITCs Diversification to dairy sector

ITC plans to become a Pan Indian dairy entity and is going to set up
plants across six states Bihar, UP, Punjab, Maharashtra, Arunachal
Pradesh and Telangana.
The companys entry into dairy business is expected to make it 3
rd
biggest
private player in the space after Nestle & Britannia.
The companys turnover from its non-fast-moving consumer food business
of WLC FOOD is the biggest contributor and has already exceeded
Rs.10,000 crores
Linkages through E-choupal- ITCs initiative to connect with rural
farmers via the Internet for procurement of agricultural products.


WHY
ITCs mega move to dairy is a part of its strategy to reduce its
dependence on tobacco legacy.
ITC might also face competition from Danone-a relatively competitive
player in Indias dairy space that had launched its YOGHURT in selected
cities & also sells packaged milk.

Competition
Nestle & Britannia are the biggest private players in Indias dairy space.
