Pelwatte Dairies Chairman Ariyaseela Wickremanayake called upon the
business community and especially the blue chips to invest in milk
production so that the US$ 300 million spent annually on national
milk imports could be saved.
The method of doing this would be to first cut 25% of the imports
so that the US$ 75 million on the milk imports could be channeled to
the blue chips so that funds could be channeled to establish seven
brand new milk factories. Imports could be gradually phased out, he
told LBT.
He said that his Moneragala factory was now producing 3 tonnes of
milk powder daily which could be increased to 10 tonnes while the
factory which now produced 30,000 – 40,000 litres of liquid milk
could be increased to 150,000 litres daily within the next year. The
company already has a network of 25,000 farmer families on an
out grower basis.
The entire product range of Pelwatte-milk powder, butter,cheese,
yoghurt, flavoured milk and long life milk, is reaching markets
countrywide and the market will be increased with the appointment of
dealers for which already 60 have applied, he said.
He also said that the products are pure 100% cow milk without
aduleration with palm oil as in some of the competing products
