"Xinjinag Milk"

Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region has a quality grassland area of 860 million mu, accounting for 22% of the national total. It is China's 2nd largest dairy region in terms of farming area and cattle numbers, after Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.

The milk produced in the region by local brands is well-known nationwide for its rich and creamy taste. However, this niche category has not yet been fully exploited because of insufficient generic marketing in a national market where competition is intense and industry leaders are financially strong. By contrast, most of Xinjiang businesses are small scale and limited in the scope of their distribution and marketing capabilities. There are only a few Xinjiang brands which have managed to scale up, notably Tianrun Dairy, whose recent growth has stemmed from its greater integration, and Xinjiang Xiyuchun Dairy Co., Ltd. which is currently applying for IPO.

In 2022, there were 60+ dairy processors registered in Xinjiang, with a collective revenue of less than USD1.3 billion (RMB9.0 billion). Their dairy product sales outside the region came to 250,000 tonnes, valued at less than USD417.9 million (RMB3.0 billion).
