Assam Exports First Purabi Ice Cream Consignment to Bhutan, Boosting Dairy Trade
Assam has exported its first consignment of 5,627 litres of Purabi ice cream to Bhutan, marking the state's entry into international dairy trade. Manufactured by the West Assam Milk Producers' Cooperative Union and marketed by North East Dairy and Foods Limited, the products use milk from local farmers. The Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority facilitated the export, which is expected to boost market access and income opportunities for Assam's dairy sector and farmers. Officials, including Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal, highlighted this as a milestone for regional dairy development.
