With its daily milk procurement touching 40 lakh litres, the Tamil Nadu Cooperative Milk Producers Federation, which owns the Aavin brand, said it had enough ghee and butter stocks to meet the festival season demand. The city consumes 14.8 lakh litres of milk per day (LLPD) and the rest of the State buys 15 lakh litres daily.
“Apart from the 30.50 LLPD being sold as milk in packets in the State, we have 10 lakh litres to make milk products. At the same time, we are building our buffer of butter and skimmed milk powder,” said a source in the federation.
