Made in Senegal: La Laiterie du Berger

In Senegal, only one local company produces dairy products made from fresh local milk. At the helm is young entrepreneur Bagoré Bathily. It all started in 2006 when he discovered that nearly 90% of the milk consumed in Senegal was imported as powdered milk. This revelation inspired him to launch La Laiterie du Berger.

This report by Nick Loomis highlights Bagoré’s journey, the challenges he faced, and how his innovative approach is transforming the dairy industry in Senegal.
