    Everybody seemed to desert BM Vyas once he put in his resignation as managing director of the Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF), owner of the Amul brand. Chairman Parthi Bhatol, with whom Vyas had been at loggerheads for years, accepted the resignation right away. Then the other Board members, all chairmen of Gujarat’s various district milk co-operatives, failed to weigh in on his side, as Vyas had hoped. Even Verghese Kurien, the 90 year old doyen of India’s dairy industry, who Vyas went to see, could do nothing to help his one time protégé.…

Amul has been successful in terms of keeping balance between 3.1million milk producers and 1.2billion consumers.

    Developments: During the early 1990s, Almarai entered a period of restructuring and reinvestment that took it from a decentralized structure to a centralized structure. The aim: to establish itself as a low-cost producer so that consumers can enjoy high-quality products at an affordable price. In line with this model, five decentralized processing plants were replaced with the first central processing plant. Also ten small decentralized dairy farms were replaced with four large dairy farms in Al Kharj in the central region. In late 2005, a second larger central processing plant was commissioned, incorporating a new cheese plant. As well as two new super-farms were commissioned. In the same year, Almarai moved from being a privately owned company to a publicly listed company and now has around 70,000 shareholders. At the end of 2011, Almarai's market capitalization exceeded SAR23 billion.…

This is when AMUL (meaning priceless), Asia's top milk-producing brand today, was born. Soon Anand had been transformed from a small village in the country to the Milk Capital of India.…
