On World Milk Day, U.S. dairy has reason to celebrate
Retail dairy gains related to the pandemic have continued into the ‘new normal.’
Today is World Milk Day, and although dairy still has much to overcome, it also has reason to celebrate.
Retail-sales as reported by Chicago-based market research firm IRI over the past three months show that consumers have reacted to the coronavirus crisis first by stocking up on dairy, then by continuing to buy milk and other products at disproportionately high levels, the Arlington, Va.-based National Milk Producers Federation (NMPF) said.
