As part of an ongoing business strategy to deal with sharply fluctuating world milk prices, Vinamilk has set-out to invest in dairy farms which supply its dairy plants quality products and, at the same time, increase the rate of localization.

By April 2015, Vinamilk has set up 9 dairy farms in Tuyen Quang, Thanh Hoa, Nghe An, Binh Dinh, and Lam Dong.

During the period 2015-2017, Vinamilk plans to import dairy cows from Australia.

The company intends to increase its number of dairy cows to 150,000 by 2017 and 200,000 by 2020./
