As a fast-moving consumer good company also involved in the dairy industry, CHI’s recent launch was introduction of Hollandia Lactose Free Easy to Digest Milk targeting lactose intolerant consumers.
The company has highlighted that the launch follows a research that showed majority of Nigerians are lactose intolerant and are unable to digest lactose present in milk.
The new milk aimed at promoting a healthy lifestyle will enable lactose intolerant consumers to easily digest the milk sugar which causes stomach discomfort, bloating and stomach upsets to them.
Most consumers may not connect these symptoms with lactose intolerance since the awareness is low. But for those who are aware, stop taking milk thereby losing out on all the benefits of milk such as calcium, proteins and vitamins.
Chi is recognized in West Africa as an innovative, fast-growing leader in expanding beverage categories, including juices, value-added dairy and iced tea with a wide customer base.
The company is a fully owned subsidiary of the Coca-Cola Company.
