Amul was formed in 1946 as a dairy cooperative movement in India. It is managed by the Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation and has become India's largest milk producer. Amul spurred the White Revolution in India and has created a billion dollar brand. It sells products like milk, butter, ghee, ice cream and milk powder both domestically and internationally. Amul's success is largely attributed to Dr. Verghese Kurien, the former chairman of GCMMF. It follows a three tier business process involving village cooperatives, processing unions, and GCMMF for marketing. Amul is a mass market brand focused on quality and affordability.
