About this Report

About this Report

Input costs and producer prices for global dairy processors faced notable upward pressures in 2011. Despite this, average retail prices remained relatively flat in real terms thanks to the strength of modern grocery retailers and their persistent retail price discounting. Given this, how can the world’s dairy processors protect their margins? Added value innovations, with an explicit focus on health and nutrition, can help justify higher retail prices in developed and developing markets alike.
