India’s largest dairy brand, Amul, is looking to launch price-based products with dairy, milk, ghee and other items in Rs 20, Rs 10 and even smaller pack sizes to meet rural demand.
Amul dairy products are available in almost all large markets and mid-sized towns, but a large part of consumer demand comes from rural India.
“There is a big market in rural India. With our unique quality and taste, our dairy products are becoming very popular among rural consumers. Hence, we are planning to launch smaller packs to address this demand,” said R S Sodhi, managing director, GCMMF.
