Establishment:-
Kolhapur Zilla Sahakari Dudh Utpadak Sangh
Ltd., a Co-operative organization that is radically known
for its most prominent brand ‘Gokul’ which makes the
day of millions of Indians early in the morning. It is the
brand which remains one of the most cherished and
delightful… whose every drop in itself is an authentic
evidence of impeccable taste, highest purity and
unmatched quality. The brand GOKUL made its foray on
16 th march,1963 through a small beginning but envisioned
immense vigor, enthusiasm and striking speed for
growth. The Gokul Co-op milk union has enthusiastically
implemented professional management funda to bring
Socio-Economic change in milk producer farmers life.
The Growth of Organisation :
After initial hiccups, in the year 1978, the
National Dairy Development Board selected the
Kolhapur Milk Union for their ambitious ‘Operation
Flood Programme’ (OF). As a pre-requisite condition for
the funding, the Government Dairy with a capacity of
40,000 liters per day, was to be handed over to the
cooperative. The State Govt. agreed for the same,
however, because of certain issues, the actual handing
over was completed in the year 1985. During this period,
i.e. from 1978 to 1985, the OF Programme took up and the
milk collection which was in the range of 2.5 lakh liters
per day, reached to a peak of 4.5 llpd. Because of the
delay in the handing over of the dairy plant, NDDB
agreed to provide funds for establishment of a new dairy
plant with a capacity of 2.00 llpd. The State Govt. gave
a collateral guarantee for the funds given by NDDB to
Kolhapur Milk Union under OF programme. While
handing over the dairy plant, the State Govt. contributed
a share capital of Rs.35,47,200/- in the form of land,
building & machinery of this plant, which was returned
by the Kolhapur milk union in the year 2001.
Existing:
At present the Gokul dairy has got a capacity
to handle 7.00 lakh liters of milk on daily basis. In
addition, the main dairy can also produce 40 MTs of Milk
Powder on daily basis, making a total handling capacity
of around 11.00 lakh liters of milk per day. Besides, the
dairy has milk products manufacturing capacities for
