Dairy Industry Transformation

In a rapidly evolving global economy, businesses increasingly face the pressure to reduce costs, increase efficiency, and stay competitive. For many firms, especially those in developing countries, logistics outsourcing has emerged as a strategic tool to achieve these goals.In the heartbeat of Kenya's agricultural sector lies the dairy industry - a lifeline to millions, a contributor to the national economy, and a provider of daily nourishment. Yet behind every packet of milk or cup of yogurt is a complex chain of movement, storage, coordination, and delivery. For dairy processing firms, the real battle is not just producing quality milk - it's getting it to the market efficiently, safely, and profitably. And that's where logistics steps in.This book is born from a question that grew louder with every passing year in Kenya's evolving agribusiness scene:Can logistics outsourcing help dairy processing firms not just survive, but thrive?At first glance, logistics may seem like a background operation - trucks, warehouses, delivery routes. But in truth, it is the spine of supply chain performance.
