Description
Asili Dairy is a women-led dairy company with a mission to supply high-quality and affordable dairy products fully and sustainably. It deals with milk processing into varied dairy products such as probiotic yogurt, fresh milk, sour milk, cream, and ghee
Market Opportunity/ Problem
Customers nowadays look for natural label products that do not contain artificial preservatives. Asili Dairy believes that this can be achieved through sourcing of high-quality raw milk from local and sustainable farmers. The company will be able to provide smallholder famers with a sustainable market for their raw milk which will reduces the amount of milk losses and waste due to lack of stable markets where they can sell their raw milk
