An extensive assessment of dairy demand has been conducted in 13 woredas of the Tigrai region by a team of highly qualified animal science and marketing experts. The trigger point for commissioning was the fact that there was a perceived wide gap between supply and demand for milk products in Tigray. It was found out that there there is a serious shortage of milk and its extractions in almost all urban areas. The high demand for emanates from a better understanding of consumers about the nutritional contents of milk and milk products, the rapid natural population growth, and growth in disposable income of consumers.
