?Formed in 1946 ?the largest producer of milk and milk products in the world. It is also the world's largest vegetarian cheese brand . ?Amul is the largest food brand in India and world's largest pouched milk brand with an annual turnover of US $2.2 billion (2010-11). ?Dr Verghese Kurien, former chairman of the GCMMF ?The Kaira District Co-operative Milk Producers' Union, popularly known as Amul Dairy is a US $1068 million turnover institution. It is an institution built up with a network of over 10000 Village Cooperative Societies and 500,000 plus members ?Managed by an Apex Co-operative Organization, Gujrat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation Ltd. (GCMMF) which today is jointly owned by some 3.11 million milk producers in Gujrat, India
?The Kaira District Co-operative Milk Producers' Union was registered on December 14, 1946 ?Milk Producers had to travel long distances to deliver milk to the only dairy, the Polson Dairy in Anand ?Angered by the unfair and manipulative trade practices, the farmers of Kaira District approached Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, who advised the farmers to form a Cooperative and supply milk directly to the Bombay Milk Scheme instead of selling it to Polson (who did the same but gave low prices to the producers) ?The Cooperative was further developed and managed by Dr.Verghese Kurien along with Mr H.M Dalaya. Dr.Kurien, a World Food Prize and Magsaysay Award winner, was the pioneer of this White Revolution. ?Indigenous research and development and technology development at the Cooperative had led to the successful production of skimmed milk powder from buffalo milk for the first time on a commercial scale anywhere in the world.
? In order to combine forces and expand the market while saving on advertising and avoid a situation where milk cooperatives would compete against each other it was decided to set up an apex marketing body of dairy cooperative unions in Gujarat. Thus, in 1973, the Gujarat Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation was established. ?The Kaira District Co-operative Milk Producers’ Union Ltd. which had established the brand nameAmul in 1955 decided to hand over the brand name to GCMMF (AMUL). ?Impressed with the development of dairy cooperatives in Kaira District and its success, Lal Bahadur Shastri, the then Prime Minister of India during his visit to Anand in 1964, asked Dr. Kurien to replicate the Anand type dairy cooperatives all over India. ?Thus, the National Dairy Developed Board was formed and Operation Flood Programme was launched for replication of the Amul Model all over India.
