Essay On Dairy Industry

In 1990, there were over 9300 dairy farms in Ontario housing almost 450,000 cows. The farm-gate value of milk produced exceeded 1.3 billion dollars. At the retail level, dairy product sales in Ontario exceeded 4 billion dollars. The number of dairy herds in Ontario on a milk-testing program had declined from about 7100 in 1985 to 6000 in 1990. Moreover, a continued decrease was projected.

Russians consume 2.5 kg of ice cream compared to the 16 kg in the USA. This is due to a different mode of consumption. Russians consume ice cream “on the go” as a snack – Spontaneous/impulsive purchase (no in-house consumption at the beginning)

The other thing that we should consider before using dairy products is from the ethical point of view. Drinking cow’s milk or consuming any dairy product is equal to torturing thousands of cows, due to changing their nature and way of living in order to make them useable for ourselves. It has become evident that milk is not the only source and product that we can reach vitamins, proteins and calcium from, in fact there are many natural and healthy products that we can reach out those factors that we are looking for it in milk, for instance fruits. Contrary to common belief, people should stop consuming milk because it is unhealthy, unnatural and unethical.

While there are many significant challenges presented to dairy farmers including making production environmentally friendly, competitive products, and consolidation, I belvie that the shift towards mega-farms is the largest potential threat. As we advance in technology we also advance in productivy, moreover, this can be harmful to dairy farmers. Mega-farms allow better technology to become more competitive and increase more product output. With this advantage, these mega-farms dominate the market and gain significantly finicailly. While an increase in production from a fiscal stand point may appear positive it diminishes local dairy farmers and they can simply not compete with mega-farms economically. While mega-farms face there own problems

The Cone Zone is a mobile ice cream truck that will cater to a wide range of people from different economical standings and different geographical locations. Taking advantage of the popularity of food trucks as well as the brand recognition that Jeni’s ice cream has established will assist in getting the word out, cut down on marketing needs, and position The Cone Zone  in an already growing market.

The Cone Zone intends to take full advantage of that gap. Currently the Jeni’s Ice Cream brick and mortar stores are

When you consume your dairy products, do you ever wonder what cow it came from? Or when you go down the dairy aisle, do you have trouble deciding which milk to choose? The stores we shop at offer so many different types of milks, with different vitamins, percentage of fats and the prices vary.

Cold Stone Creamery use national marketing strategy but also adapts to use specialized local marketing strategies for its franchisee to help them increase sales. For instance they market themselves for not just giving customer ice cream but rather an “Experience”; they are also targeting the healthier crowd by bringing in healthy smoothies (because they are traditionally known for unhealthy treats).

undifferentiated product. Imported brand are not only sold by the Russian market, but also welcomed by government. The Ice-Fili product is quickly perishable. These foreign companies produce the product differently by adding preservatives which in the long run lowers costs due to extended shelf life. Also the technology is more recent and more innovative in the foreign companies, which, lets them have the top of the line products that Ice-Fili is incapable of  producing without putting more money into new equipment.

They sell the ice cream at more places than just the kiosks that Ice-Fili sells at, because they produce more than ice cream. Lastly, the ice cream industry has no growth. In recent years they actually have a shrinking

Babies have been dependent on his mother’s milk for survival. Although, the cow’s milk began to be used as a domestic animal 5000 years ago, less than 100 years since the baby food industry started to manufacture refined milk-based products as alternatives to breast milk.

Although Ice-Fili is a large scale domestic ice cream producer it must compete with other large and small firms in the overall ice cream industry.

Lastly after analyzing these two areas I will provide my recommendations for Ice-Fili over the next three to five years.
