Procurement

To meet out the milk requirement for manufacturing different milk products, SWASTIK DAIRY procures good quality milk from more than 50 rural milk procurement routes. These routes have a regular route plan with the timing to pick up milk cans for each village in the morning and evening. All the farmers have to pour the milk before the milk truck reaches their village, Once all the farmers have poured their milk, the milk is collected in cans and loaded on to the trucks on the precise time fixed for picking the cans at the village. After collecting milk from all the allotted village, the milk procurement vehicle arrives at the Swastik Milk Chilling Centre(SCC) . The vehicle has to arrive at the milk chilling centre at the fixed arrival time for the vehicle at the SCC. At the SCC the milk is tested again for more parameters than at the villages. Once the milk is tested organoleptic ally it is weighed, a sample is taken for more detailed tests and pumped to the chilling unit. The samples are taken for detailed testing. Once all the vehicles arrive and all the milk transferred for chilling the samples are taken for testing. Once the tests are completed and the suitability of the entire SCCs milk is confirmed to meet Swastik strict quality norms, the milk is loaded into a road milk tanker and sent to the dairy production plant for processing. At the dairy the milk is put through more tests before taking it up further processing.
