KARACHI:
Tetra Pak, a food processing and packaging company, has forecast a rise of around 30 per cent in global consumption of milk and other liquid dairy products from 2010 to 2020. This consumption boom will be driven by economic growth, urbanisation and rising purchasing power of Asia’s middle class, according to the Tetra Pak Dairy Index. “The emergence of a significant middle-class, urbanisation and expansion of modern shopping habits by busy, health-conscious and well-informed consumers is raising the consumption of packaged milk in developing countries like Pakistan,” said Tetra Pak Pakistan Managing Director Azhar Ali Syed.
