Immediate growth will start in the dairy production hubs in East Africa and where the cows are. Longer term export to non-dairy countries will develop but only after quality partnerships are developed and consumers trust regional brands.
§ GDP per capita growth in emerging markets is driving growth and milk demand
§ Packaging is critical for opening up new emerging markets and reducing waste
§ Processors are key to any successful dairy value chain
§ EBITDA margins range from 20-30% for value added milk products in emerging markets
§ Critical cooling systems in place, preferably managed by the company
§ Increase milk production per cow (triple is goal)

Interventions Along The Dairy Value Chain
IFC can support companies to grow along the value chain CONFIDENTIAL
§ Company has processing capacity of 100,000 liters/day of raw milk (value add) to 1 million per day (powder)
§ Focus on the domestic market first
§ Revenues are a multiple of 2.0 to 3.0 of raw milk cost
§ Gross margins at 20% and above
§ Preferably no dependence on exports subsidies, tariff protection, imported milk powder, or where the cost of milk is too high and cannot compete at parity with imports
§ Location of plant to milk production area is key to delivering fresh, safe, quality milk to consumers. Depending on outside ambient temperature rule is: in 4 hours from time of milking to time processing, milk should be chilled to 4 degrees Celsius
§ Milk loss is generally between 0.5% (developed markets) to 2.5% (less developed markets)
§ Usually top three current market share player unless value added niche market

Keys to Success
Value-added Dairy Products
▪ Processed dairy products generally contribute to higher margins and are less vulnerable to sharp decline in demand. Pasteurized and UHT milk are generally not attractive markets with very low margins that companies pursue just to complete range of products and dilute fixed costs;

Keys to Success
Value-added Dairy Products
▪ Processed dairy products generally contribute to higher margins and are less vulnerable to sharp decline in demand. Pasteurized and UHT milk are generally not attractive markets with very low margins that companies pursue just to complete range of products and dilute fixed costs;
Brand and Distribution System
▪ Brand positioning and reputation are crucial. Dairy processors should have full product traceability and crisis management and recall system
▪ Distribution costs can be significant, notably for chilled and frozen goods where temperature control is essential through the supply chain.
▪ Close relationships with farmers and adequate collection mechanisms are important to ensure availability and quality of the raw milk (chilled milk is essential)
▪ Efficient production of raw milk results in low costs and sustainability of the farms ▪ In more advanced markets, companies pay a base price for the milk plus bonus for quality (solids,
fat, antibiotics, etc); ▪ Prospects of scaling farm size leads to better competitive advantage and access to financing is key
▪ Due to time to market, transport and distribution costs, companies should aim to focus on the local market. Export could be considered for very efficient low cost producers (mainly Uru, Arg);
▪ Markets tend to be 30% traditional players (IFC clients), 30% raw milk consumption (BIG OPPORTUNITY),
Market (Domestic Vs.
Exports)
Raw Milk Sourcing
Dairy industry is political and often involves protectionist policies of governments • Beware of dependence on tariff protection, subsidy, and regulated raw milk prices. • Political environment and government policies to the sector play a major role in the industry (major
risks are minimum price to be paid to farmers, price controls for final products, sanitary barriers, etc);
No Dependence on Protectionist
Policies
16
Other Topics to Consider Outsourcing vs.
Integrated Model
Operational efficiency favors outsourcing, but need for quality control can support integrated processing
▪ Upstream investment in cow farms is not necessarily cheaper if producers can secure good terms with milk suppliers
▪ Meanwhile, quality control along the entire supply chain including breeding, vaccination and feeding of animals is critical for easily perishable dairy products
UHT vs. Pasteurized
Milk
Ultra High Temperature (UHT) milk products are becoming more wide spread as they alleviate the need for refrigeration ▪ Consumers are increasingly shifting to UHT milk given the competitive pricing, longer storage life and the
enhanced convenience (less need for refrigeration) of the product ▪ Rising demand for UHT milk removes the need for comprehensive cold storage networks and expands the
potential market accessible for dairy processors ▪ As super/hiper markets gain market share (vs. mom and pop), they tend to develop own brands (mainly
low value products) that compress margins for the sector
3 main drivers to consider: 1) MILK, MILK, MILK => access to sufficient raw milk to support growth at competitive cost. This implies
assessing the milk basin adjacent to the company’s plant/s, competitive position vis a vis other processors (including black market), historical relationship with farmers (TA, financing increase loyalty), Gov policies, farmers economics (are farmers making money?, what are their alternatives?);
2) BRAND => dairy are sensitive consumer products, hence brand reputation and positioning is the most valuable asset for a company. Leaders are able to command price premium
3) DISTRIBUTION => sometimes 2nd cost item after milk. Capacity to source raw milk and distribute final products efficiently and with a high numeric distribution are key main success factors
§ Milk Collection Not Controlled By Processor
§ Government Interference in the Sector (Argentina and Russia)
§ Weak brand and marketing does not allow for passing on the cost when milk prices increases
§ Commodity Product in Non-Competitive Country (UHT)
§ Wrong Product for the Wrong Market (UHT vs Fresh Pasteurized)
§ Vertical Integration/Too Much Investment in Dairy Production (BRIC perhaps)
§ Raw Milk Price Too High (Lack of Feed, Conducive Climate and Adequate Pastureland)
§ Cooperative with Poor Corporate Governance (Owned and Managed By Member Farmer)
§ Second Hand/Poor Quality Equipment Leading to Downtime and Poor Operating Efficiency
§ Financial Wizards Leading the Investment Rather than Technical Dairy Specialist
§ No Skin in the Game/No Previous Experience in Dairy (Politically Driven Projects rather than Commercially Driven)
Why do projects not work?

Nuts and Bolts of Farmer Financing
• In the normal course of business, dairies collect data related to individual suppliers (amounts of milk produced, fat content, protein content, bacteria/somatic cell count).
• Using a credit bureau like approach, the amount of data collected by dairies should be sufficient to create a “performance rating” similar to a credit score.
• The data collected from the dairies could be matched with data available from other sources to improve the reliability of the performance rating.
• If implemented correctly, such a performance rating could predict how a certain supplier will perform in the future.
• In cooperation with the dairy-buyer, this performance rating could be used to establish credit limits for farmers (if suitable).
• An eligible famer would receive a loan from a partner financial institution for buying eligible products like chillers/bulk tanks, cows, vet supplies, milking equipment as prioritized in cooperation with the local processor. The loan would be repaid with milk deliveries over a tenor of up to [three] years.

How to Pilot Performance Ratings • Select 2-3 markets which meet the following conditions:
§ Growing milk demand, § Good economics (payback periods) for capital investments by dairy farmers, § Financially strong diaries interested in cooperating with IFC and increasing milk quality and quantity, § Reliable suppliers for relevant equipment are present in the market.
• Raise donor funds in the amount of: § Up to US$ [1] million to develop a performance rating methodology and actual ratings § Up to US$ [6] million as first loss for lending based on performance ratings
• Identify 2 companies with a strong track record in evaluating data for credit risk analysis to develop a performance rating methodology ratings for selected suppliers.
• Implement the financing mechanism with one or several dairies and 1-2 financial intermediaries (FIs). The criteria for FI selection would primarily be the ability to serve most of the milk suppliers of a dairy and good processing skills.
• Test the reliability of the performance ratings with reasonably small pilot portfolios and monitor the outcome closely. Likely, the pilot (< US$ 1 million) will have to be fully funded with donor funds as the banks will not trust the mechanism.
• One or two re-designs of the ratings will likely be necessary. During the second and third iteration, the financed amounts should grow and banks should, with a substantial first loss on a portfolio basis (20-40%), assume some of the credit risk.
• Once the reliability is sufficiently high (NPLs in low single digits), incentivize local financial intermediaries to apply the performance ratings. Probably, first loss would still be needed for introducing a new FI to performance ratings but the first loss should only be around 5-10%.
• Replicate the approach in other countries after necessary local adaptations!

“North Andre Traceability and Farm Improvement Program/Apple juice concentrate” ü #of beneficiaries: 200 producers and MHD staff
( train the trainers) Components Development of the Sichuan Hong Xing Demonstration
Farm: to improve farm management, animal husbandry techniques and feeding regimes
Development of a Technology Transfer Programme : In
addition to receiving technical information from foreign and local dairy experts, local trainers received training about how and where to find information about new technologies.
Establishment of the New Hope State of the Art Dairy
Facility: not to support NHD production but to help local farmers to learn farm management and new dairy technology, as well as providing good quality calves to local farmers
26
New Hope Dairy (China) – Main results
ü Net income (considering costs to implement best practices):
• Increase in 45% of annual net income per household (US$ 455 vs. US$315) ü Increase in firm’s productivity:
• On average, there was an 11% increase in milk yield. • 50% of participants reported between 11- 20% increase in milk yield.
ü Cost /benefit analysis:
• As a result of the income increase, each dollar of the Technical Training expenditures generated a gross return of $2.70 or a net return of $1.70.
Main lessons learned
ü Tailor training and mentoring according to individual farmers’ needs.
ü Reach out and encourage more women to participate in the project.
ü Increase cooperation with the client company and local government to improve positive enabling environments for farmers to apply new knowledge and practices.
ü Changing perception and gaining new knowledge does not make people automatically alter their behavior, unless resources enable them to do so.
