Fonterra opens Dubai warehouse

FONTERRA HAS opened a dairy ingredients warehouse in Dubai to help support the growing demand for dairy products throughout the Middle East, Africa, and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) region.

 

The warehouse will enable Fonterra to hold more than 5,000 metric tonnes of product in Dubai ready for quick supply to customers.

It will work as a distribution hub for Fonterra's ingredients business which sells more than $2.3 billion in dairy ingredients throughout the region each year.
