Amul

Amul is an Indian Dairy Cooperative Society, headquartered in Anand, Gujrat. It was the year 1946 when the poor farmers in Gujrat were exploited as they were paid very low prices. The exploitation of both farmers and consumers gave birth to the idea of cooperative organization which was suggested by Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and former prime minister of India Morarji Desai. The major minds behind the implementation who actually turned this idea into reality were by the virtue of the superior leadership of Tribhuvandas Patel and Dr. Verghese Kurien.

The objectives of Dr. Kurien were clear - a value for money that is affordable for consumers, and value for many that are profitable for farmers. 80% revenue of the firm was given to farmers, which makes Amul the largest profit-sharing company in the world. It stands at the top of its competitors in the field of most selling products in butter, milk, and ice-creams. The Amul brand has given the farmers the courage to live, hope, and dream.

Amul name means priceless in Sanskrit and the word AMUL stands for Anand Milk Union Limited. It produces butter and spreads, cheeses, sweets, milk, ghee, milk powder, condensed milk, ice cream, chocolate, lassees, and other milk-based drinks.

Advertising and marketing mark its importance in being the key elements in bringing the phenomenal success of Amul. In 1966, its advertising campaign launched the Amul Moppet, which was a small chubby-faced girl on advertising hoardings.
