Dodla Dairy (Dodla) is gradually climbing up the prominence ladder in India’s Rs 15tn dairy industry by displaying immaculate consistency and efficient execution.
With a regional focus and contiguous expansion mindset, the company has been able to gradually ramp up its procurement as well as distribution to become the 3rd largest private dairy player in South India.
Dodla’s strengths are in creating a wide and stable sourcing network, deep farmer relationships and efficient supply chain operations. It is now scaling up its Value Added Products (VAP) portfolio through the introduction of curd, ice-creams, paneer, yogurt, ghee, etc. At the same time, while scaling up its VAP portfolio, Dodla has not compromised on its Return on Capital Employed and free cash flow generation.
The company also has highly profitable dairy operations in Africa and is actively looking at increasing its presence internationally.
With a cash-rich balance sheet, low working capital cycle and strong cash generation, Dodla is poised to remain amongst the top dairy brands in India.
