Dairy Manufacturing

Chad’s dairy market is on the growing stage, driven by increasing urbanization and changing diets. The market for processed dairy products like milk, yogurt, and cheese is underserved, presenting growth potential for local production and manufacturing facilities to cater to this rising demand.
 

Milk, yogurt, and cheese are the most in-demand dairy products in Chad, particularly in urban centers. The growing middle class and increasing urban population have led to higher consumption of processed dairy, creating a market opportunity for producers and manufacturers. 
 

The country has vast pastoral lands and a strong tradition of livestock farming, offering great potential for dairy 
farming. The local climate and resources support the breeding of dairy cattle, though development of modern farming techniques and sustainable practices would significantly increase milk production. 

Milk and dairy products’ demand in Chad is rising, especially in urban areas. With a population of over 17 million people, the market for dairy is underserved, creating an opportunity for local production to fill the gap left by imported products. 
 

There are significant opportunities in dairy processing plants, local milk production, and establishing supply chains. The sector offers a growing market with access to both domestic and regional markets, particularly due to Chad's membership in the Central African Economic and Monetary Community (CEMAC).
 

Modern dairy technologies, including automated milking systems, efficient dairy processing machinery, and cold chain solutions, can boost milk production and product quality in Chad. Introducing these technologies would help address supply chain inefficiencies and improve the competitiveness of locally produced dairy.
