“This Christmas season should be better than what we saw in the last few years, especially with the country opening up. We are hoping for a good Christmas,” Alaska Milk Managing Director Tarang Gupta told reporters on the sidelines of a media briefing in Makati City on Wednesday.
“Milk consumption is relatively less seasonal. But we see seasonality, especially for some products in Christmas celebrations such as all-purpose cream,” he added. According to Mr. Gupta, the company’s products are mostly locally produced but most of the raw materials used in production are imported. Meanwhile, Alaska Milk announced the creation of a shared facility that will offer dairy farmer training, farmer-to-farmer exchange programs, exchange of academic materials, publications, information, and research as well as lectures and discussions.
