on

Mother Dairy has tied up with leading e-tailers to boost its revenue and to increase its presence in the emerging e-commerce space in the country. The partnership will allow Mother Dairy to sell its products on the e-tailers platform, including dairy products, fruits and vegetables. This tie-up will also allow Mother Dairy to procure more products from farmers leading to an increase in their income. 

E-Commerce Business

Mother Dairy, a subsidiary of the National Dairy Development Board, supplies nearly 30 lakh litres of milk in the national capital region. Most of its business comes from its dairy segment, which accounts for nearly 75 percent of the revenue. The tie-up with leading e-tailers will assist the company in establishing a presence in the e-commerce sector and to increase the company’s profits through another source of revenue. Speaking to Economic Times about the tie-up, S Nagarajan, Managing Director of Mother Dairy, said, “We are tying up with e-commerce companies like Big Basket to increase our reach to the customers. We also want to improve farmers’ income through increased procurement of milk and fresh fruits and vegetables.”
