 ABOUT COMPANY INSIGHTS GAINED BY STUDENTS:

Operations on HAP Milk Procurement:

 Hatsun operates more than 1,100 rural milk procurement routes. These routes have a regular route plan with the timing to pick up milk cans from each HMB/village in the morning and evening. All farmers must pour the milk before the milk truck reaches their HMB. Once all the farmers have poured their milk, it is collected in cans and loaded onto the trucks on the time fixed for picking up the cans at the HMB. After collecting milk from all the allotted HMBs, the milk procurement vehicle arrives at the Hatsun Milk Chilling Centre (CC). At the CC, the milk is tested again for more parameters. Once the milk is tested organoleptically, it is weighed. Samples are taken for more detailed tests and pumped to the chilling unit. The samples are taken for detailed testing. Once all the vehicles have arrived and all the milk is transferred for chilling, the samples are taken for testing. After the tests are completed and the suitability of the entire CCs milk is confirmed to meet Hatsun's strict quality norms, the milk is loaded into a milk tanker and sent to the dairy. At the dairy the milk is put through more tests before taking it up for further processing.
