Milk producers focus on yogurt products

Holding 84 percent of the yogurt market share, Vinamilk, the nation’s leading dairy producer, has been marketing new products, from yogurt with aloe to yogurt for children.

IDP, after launching Love In Farm, its first yogurt product, has introduced a series of products with additional nutrients and fruits. Yogurt makes up nearly 50 percent of the company’s revenue.

FrieslandCampina, TH true Milk, Nutifood and Hanoi Milk have also marketed new products.

Mark Boot, CEO of FrieslandCampina Vietnam, said he feels satisfied about the sales of “Dutch Lady” brand pasteurized yogurt which have been growing well over a short time.

TH Milk has confirmed a two-digit annual growth rate of TH True yogurt products in the last few years.

Nutifood, which just began making yogurt after signing a contract with Hoang Anh Gia Lai Group on the group’s milk material supply, reported that ‘demand is higher than production capacity’ and that it plans to expand production in the near future, when the material supply increases.
