But what?

But they have been unable to penetrate the market controlled to an extent by brookside...as of 2020,40% market share.

If you search pale amazon UK, utapata powdered milk huretail at more than Ksh. 1900.

What quantity of milk powder?
16 tonnes of this is 2k dollars

 

[Othello]

What quantity of milk powder?

Per kg. That's the cheapest I found

Really doubt this narrative. You can't compare the price of food commodities in Europe and here. Sometimes ago, someone posted mbisha ya ovacado in German supermarket. Ilikuwa €3+ per piece. If you search pale amazon UK, utapata powdered milk huretail at more than Ksh. 1900. So it's impossible to sell it here

Nigeria imports 98% of its milk mostly from Europe. And Nigerian dairy farmers cant compete with the imported milk/milk powder. So its possible to sell European milk even here.

Almost all milk processors do import milk powder for reconstituting especially during the dry season when raw milk production falls below expected amounts.
And they import in bulk,so they benefit from that!

Never knew that. But considering the kind of surplus milk that was being bought at 20bob per liter in 2019-20,....

Its true, Uganda doesn't have enough dairy cows to supply the amounts we saw from lato almost overnight, its reconstituted

What caused the so called surplus? Not over production coz companies,like the one I worked for,used all the excess milk to make butter and ghee.
The 'surplus' resulted from poor infrastructure...roads,coolers etc

Per kg. That's the cheapest I found

my search gives me $8. Then

To get the liters of fresh milk to get 1kg of milk powder, divide 100% with the total solids 11.8%. Thus, theoretically - 8.5liters fresh milk will produce 1kg of powdered milk.

Not forgetting butter fat content. Most important.

They add palm oil to the milk powder. Thus Palm oil = butter fat content.

Is this even possible? Who is a milk expert here?

It's Krimino

Soma how it's done here. It's called fat-filled milk powder -- a cheap milk lookalike that is made with a mix of milk powders and palm oil.

Even when it's about to expire? or has failed some safety checks out there?

One, you don't use retail prices to estimate commodity prices. Two, agricultural exports from Europe are heavily subsidized, which makes them cheaper than local produce.
