According to the Bank’s website, the project consists of capital expenditures financing to allow mooMark to expand its production of value-added dairy products, boosting incomes for additional dairy farmers and contributing to the reduction of food insecurity in India.
The Project will support mooMark’s construction and purchase of advanced machinery, equipment, and materials to expand milk collection, chilling, and processing centers. This is expected to improve supply chain efficiency, ensure the quality of dairy products, and support the livelihoods of smallholder farmers by improving access to markets and fair pricing for their milk.
The proposed Project is screened as Category B under DFC’s environmental and social guidelines because impacts are readily mitigated using standard industry practices. Project requirements include the need for a robust environmental and social management system that addresses contractor management, occupational health and safety, food safety, fire prevention and control, resource efficiency and pollution management, and waste management.
12-year direct loan of an amount up to $10.0 million
