FrieslandCampina sets up mobile plant for long shelf life yogurt in Nigeria
Netherlands-based FrieslandCampina is strengthening local dairy production in Nigeria by building a mobile yogurt plant, which will enable the company to process milk from local dairy farmers into yogurt drinks with a long shelf life.
The new yogurt plant will start with processing 1.8 million kilograms of milk and can annually produce more than 18 million pouches of drinking yogurt. The project is part of the Dairy Development Programme that supports local farmers to increase their milk production, improve the quality of the milk and offer them access to the market.
The processing capacity can be rapidly scaled up, the company notes. It expects to begin operations at the Nigerian plant during the first quarter of 2022.
