  • Startup Digitizes Milk Delivery in India
    Milk delivery | Photo source Meena Kadri on Flickr Innovation > Mobility & Transport > Startup digitizes milk delivery in India STARTUP DIGITIZES MILK DELIVERY IN INDIA MOBILITY & TRANSPORT A Mumbai based startup is disrupting the milk delivery system in India, giving customers a more convenient and safer way to buy milk. India’s existing milk delivery system is haphazardly organized and has issues around quality. Government reports suggest that as much as 68 percent of milk is ‘tainted.’ Typically, delivery people, whose job is extra to their daytime employment, will water their milk down in order to make greater income from their lot. Reports also suggest that to mask coloration and make their milk appear pure, they also add a range of things including detergent, caustic soda, glucose, white paint and refined oil. Now, Supr Daily is a Mumbai based startup that has digitised milk delivery. Supr Daily delivers fresh milk to customers directly from farms, with zero additives. It works using a mobile app and WhatsApp account, making communicating with the milkman easier. There is even a vacation setting. The company also offers some everyday goods like bread, eggs, butter and coconut milk for the convenience of their customers. Currently available in 15 neighborhoods in Mumbai, Supr Daily has completed more than 500,000 deliveries over the last year. CEO and founder, Puneet Kumar, reports that 90 percent of customers are repeat purchasers and it’s not hard to see why. The startup has reduced the price of delivery with many saving as much as 30-40 percent on purchases, and the quality of milk is significantly better because Supr Daily works directly with milk farms.

  • Life Cycle Assessment of Example Packaging Systems for Milk
    Final Report Life cycle assessment of example packaging systems for milk Retail Distribution System A Life Cycle Assessment covering the potential environmental impact of different example milk containers for pasteurised milk available on the UK market, distributed via a retail system. The purpose is to inform and educate WRAP and our stakeholders about the nature of the environmental impacts of each milk container system and the benefits that can be achieved through alternative end-of-life options. The information should not be used to make comparative assertions between formats. Project code: EVA044 Research date: August 2007 – June 2009 Date: January 2010 WRAP helps individuals, businesses and local authorities to reduce waste and recycle more, making better use of resources and helping to tackle climate change. Written by: Jonna Meyhoff Fry, Bryan Hartlin, Erika Wallén and Simon Aumônier (Environmental Resources Management Limited). Front cover photography: milk bottles displayed in chilled section. WRAP and Environmental Resources Management Limited believe the content of this report to be correct as at the date of writing. However, factors such as prices, levels of recycled content and regulatory requirements are subject to change and users of the report should check with their suppliers to confirm the current situation. In addition, care should be taken in using any of the cost information provided as it is based upon numerous project-specific assumptions (such as scale, location, tender context, etc.). The report does not claim to be exhaustive, nor does it claim to cover all relevant products and specifications available on the market. While steps have been taken to ensure accuracy, WRAP cannot accept responsibility or be held liable to any person for any loss or damage arising out of or in connection with this information being inaccurate, incomplete or misleading.

  • Best Practices Guide for Cheesemakers Published February 15, 2017
    The American Cheese Society’s Best Practices Guide for Cheesemakers Published February 15, 2017 Copyright © 2016, 2017 American Cheese Society First Edition, 2016 Reprinted with revisions, 2017 All figures in this Guide and documents in the Appendix have been reprinted with permission from the copyright holders. Best Practices Guide for Cheesemakers Introduction In 2016, the American Cheese Society (ACS) released its Best Practices Guide for Cheesemakers (Guide). Its completion was a key strategic goal of the Board of Directors, and the central task with which the Regulatory & Academic Committee had been charged. ACS members requested such a resource, and by way of response, this Guide was created to encompass currently accepted best practices for cheesemaking. This second edition of the Guide includes updates based on changing regulations, incorporates direct feedback and clarification from reviewers at the U.S. Food & Drug Administration, and provides more current resources and templates where available. This Guide provides an easy reference for busy cheesemakers—especially small- to mid-size producers—one which can be readily accessed. Regulatory agencies and academics provide information in great detail, but it is often buried within volumes of text. This Guide gleans the key requirements, suggestions, and practices from that vast sea of information, and attempts to condense them into a more easily digestible format written in more accessible language. I hope you will find that the information provided in this Guide is useful and answers some of your key questions. Please keep in mind that this is not a static document. The Guide will continually grow and change based on feedback from members, academics, regulators, and others.
