Milk & Milk Products are daily necessities. Whether it is milk, yogurt,
milk powder, butter, cheese, or ice cream; these products have become a way of
life.
Sudan has a population close to 40 million people of which around 10
million are centered in and around Khartoum district.
All these years, milk & milk products were not in focus as commercial
venture. It's only in the last 3 years that this industry has opened up. At a
demand level, the following quantities are currently in demand;
Pasteurized Milk 100,000 liters per day
Yogurt 200 tons per day
Ice creams 50000 liters per day
This is just the beginning of the new consumer demand in Sudan and which is
expected to grow at the rate of 10% per year for the next 10 years. Against,
the above demand, 4 major manufacturers are able to generate production as
following:
Pasteurized Milk 45000 liters per day
Yogurt 26.5 tons per day
Ice creams 14,500 liters per day
This shows a gap between the demand & supply as under:
Pasteurized Milk 55000 liters per day
Yogurt 173.5 tons per day
Ice creams 35,500 liters per day
The existing manufacturers cannot increase their capacities since they had
planned for smaller capacities and have reached maximum capacity utilization
levels. Apart from Capo & Daima, the other two competitors have no strategic
marketing plans. Capo & Daima are more focused on Pasteurized Milk alone as
they have tied up their investments in this sector.
This leaves Yogurt & Ice creams as highly safe investment opportunity
today. No family in Sudan makes Yogurt at home and the deficit of 170 tons per day
is a huge market to operate with around 77.5% net returns.
Similarly, the gap in Ice cream production can be tapped very effectively
as the profit margins are 167%, but a heavy orientation & marketing strategy
is needed to increase the sales for Ice cream business.
The overall investments & expected returns are summarized below:
A) Yogurt Manufacturing only for proposed 10 tons per day
Plant Machinery & Equipment : US $ 540,000
Land & Building 20,000 sq.ft : at actuals
Working Capital requirements at 40 days' stock turnover : at actuals
Expected return per day : US $ 3000
Expected return per month : US $ 90000
Pay-back period for capital investment

Production commencement date : 10 months
B) Ice cream Manufacturing only for proposed 10000 liters per day and
100,000 bars per day
Plant Machinery & Equipment : US $ 1,125,000
Land & Building 30,000 sq.ft : at actuals
Working Capital requirements at 40 days' stock turnover: at actuals

Expected return per month at 50% sales : US $ 100,000
Pay-back period for capital investment

Production commencement date : 12 months
A complete detailed report is available which can be put into
implementation once investment acceptance & go-ahead signal is obtained.
In conclusion, the above two projects are the most potential in the next 5
years and it would be wise to invest in these specialized fast moving
consumer product market in Sudan.

trial runs, commercial runs and initial marketing of the product to achieve
