Importing and Distributing Dairy Products in the Philippines: Overview and a Step-by-Step Guide

FREE
David Elefant
Wednesday , 8th Dec 2021
Background

The Philippines is an important market for milk importers, as it cannot produce enough to meet the local demand of almost 3 million metric tons (MMT) liquid milk equivalent (LME) per year. Dairy products are actually its third-largest agricultural import (right after wheat and soybean meal). The economic downturn due to COVID-19 slowed down the demand for such imports, but it is again projected to grow for 2021 as the economy gradually reopens.

In this webinar, David Elefant (Director, Dayanan Business Consultancy) will talk about the opportunities available in the Philippine dairy market and why importers and investors should take notice. This will be followed by a discussion of the process and requirements for importing and distributing dairy products in the country.
