Amul – a social enterprise BY: SAM SYMON
History
HISTORYAmul was registered on 14 December 1946 as a response to the exploitation of marginal milk producers by traders or agents of the only existing dairy, the Polson dairy, in the small city distance to deliver milk, which often went sour in summer, to Polson. The price of milk were arbitrarily determined. Moreover, the government had given monopoly rights to Polson to collect milk from mikka and supply it to Bombay city.Angered by unfair trade practices, the farmers of kaira approached Sardar vallabhbhai patel under the leadership of local farmer leader tribhuvandas k. patel. He advised them to form a cooperative and supply milk directly to the
Bombay milk scheme instead of polson ( who did the same but gave them low price). He sent Morarji Desai to organize the farmers. In 1946, the milk farmers of the area went on a strike which led to the setting up of the cooperative to collect and process milk. Milk collection was decentralized, as most producers were marginal farmers who could deliver at most 1-2 liters of milk per day. Cooperatives were formed for each village too.The cooperative was further developed and managed by Dr. Varghese kurien with H.M. Dalaya. Dalaya’s innovation making skim milk powder from buffalo milk (for the first time in the world) and a little later , with kurien’s help making it on a commercial scale, led to the first modern dairy of the cooperative at Anand, which would compete against
Established players in the market. Kurien’s brother in law K.M. Philip sensitized kurien to the needs of attending to the finer points of marketing, including the creation and popularization of a brand name. in a brainstorming session, a chemist who worked in the dairy laboratory suggested Amul, which came from Sanskrit word ‘amulya’, which means ‘priceless’.The trio’s (T.K. Patel, Kurien and Dalaya’s) success at the cooperative’s dairy soon spread to Anand’s neighborhood in Gujarat. within a short spam, five unions in other districts Mehsana, Banaskantha, Baroda, Sabarkantha and Surat were set up. To combine forces and expand the market while saving on advertising and avoid competing against
Each other, the GCMMF, an apex marketing body of these district cooperatives, was set up in 1973. the kaira union, which had the brand name Amul with it since 1955, transferred it to GCMMF.In 1999, it was awarded the best of all Rajiv Gandhi national quality Award.Dr. Varghese kurien was the chairman of GCMMF for more than 30 years (1973-2006).
