OPERATIONS

The Revenue from Operations increased to Rs 24,576 Lakhs during the year as compared to Rs 21,076 Lakhs in the previous year, clocking a growth of 16.61%. The capacity utilization for the year stood at 48% compared to 29% in the previous year. The Company is continuing to invest behind retail distribution expansion and up-gradation of distribution infrastructure. This will help in driving sales and distribution for the consumer products.

Company has been able to retain its market share in Dairy Creamer segment with its brands JK WHITE MAGIK, JK DAIRY TOP & MILK STAR. JK Dairy Top continues to maintain its leadership in the mid segment of dairy creamers. Single serve sachets of 3gm and 5 gm of White Magik have found greater acceptance by Hospitality, HORECA segment and Institutional buyers.

The Company has also developed a market for Bulk products including SMP and Ghee. These products are being sold in retail and consumer markets.

Company continued its focus in Pre-Mix powders for tea and coffee vending machines. Company continued its good business and relations with institutional clients like Coca Cola, Walmart etc.

Significant effort was also made during the year to increase efficiency at plant by focusing on utility costs and manpower productivity to gain efficiency resulting in better profitability.

For the year 2017-18 the milk prices remained volatile and high throughout the year. For year 2018-19 we expect Milk prices to be soft which will reduce the prices of raw material significantly. This is also likely to create excess availability of powders and ghee in the industry effectively pushing down prices for the commodities.

LIQUID MILK PLANT

Your Company operates and manages a facility owned by another Company to process and pack Liquid Milk in poly pouches for Mother Dairy, under a long term agreement. Capacity utilization for the year was at 88%.

The Curd Chhach facility started during the year stabilized production and we were able to supply the finished goods to Mother Dairy of required quality and capacity. We expect the capacity utilization of this plan to be as per budgeted volumes for 2018-19.

EXPANSION AND MODERNIZATION PLANS

Company wishes to become a significant player in Dairy & Foods space. The Company has set up a small plant for Paneer manufacturing which is under stabilization process and expected to start commercial production from Q1 onwards 2018-19.

Besides modernization of Plant and R&D facilities, Company is planning to expand production facility of Drying Plant by removing the bottlenecks and modification in the dryer. The Company is planning to invest resources behind expanding distribution of the recently launched products of Cow Ghee, Canned Paneer, UHT Milk to gain Market Share.

Company is also working on developing new value added products which are under different stages of development at R&D.

RAW MATERIAL SECURITY

Company is sanguine about the fact that to sustain a value added product portfolio, it is highly imperative to have captive milk bank where milk is collected direct from the farmers. As it is, Company is one of the few ones who have more than two decades old village level collection system under which milk is collected from nearly 525 villages comprising of about 18500 farmers.

The company will continue its efforts to expand the Village level collection system in the vicinity to ensure quality milk supplies. We also have a panel of contractors who can supply good quality milk at short notice as and when required.

ADULTERATION & FOOD SAFETY

Umang Dairies Ltd has FSSAI License, in addition to this all our Milk Chilling Centers and Warehouses are also covered under FSSAI.

The company has always focused on Good Manufacturing Practices(GMP) and Hygienic Practices as part of its culture. All incoming Milk Consignments are being screened for Adulteration as per the Guideline of FSSAI to maintain purity of Milk and resultant products.

Recently, National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) has awarded most coveted Quality Marks for Packing Operation of Poly Pack Milk under Mother Dairy Brand.
