FrieslandCampina Engro Pakistan launches Pakistan-Netherlands Dairy Development Centre

FrieslandCampina Engro (FCE) has launched the Pakistan-Netherlands Dairy Development Centre (NDDC) together with the University of Veterinary and Animal Sciences (UVAS).

The activities of the centre will focus on sharing Dutch dairy expertise with Pakistani experts and decision makers in dairy research and the dairy industry.

The Netherlands has a long history and vast experience in producing high quality milk in an extremely efficient manner. Therefore, the centre aims to build a bridge in this dairy expertise between the Netherlands and Pakistan.

Ali Ahmed Khan, managing director of FrieslandCampina Engro Pakistan, said: "With FrieslandCampina's expertise in dairy and our ‘grass to glass' approach, we are committed to promoting the growth and development of the local dairy sector in Pakistan.

"Besides the dairy development activities that the FCE has already been executing for many years, the centre will accelerate in filling in the needs for knowledge to further professionalise the Pakistani dairy sector."
