Port of LA, CMA CGM and International Dairy Foods Association join together to advance US dairy exports
The Port of Los Angeles (LA) has partnered with CMA CGM and the International Dairy Foods Association (IDFA) to form a Dairy Exports Working Group aimed at identifying and addressing supply chain issues hampering US dairy product exports.
The group will focus on seaports on the west coast of the US, where a majority of dairy products begin their export journey, as well as opportunities to streamline the movement from the interior of the US to the west coast.
Michael Dykes, D.V.M, president and CEO of IDFS, said: “US dairy exports reached a near-record US$6.4bn in 2020 and continued to set a blazing pace in 2021 due to surging global demand, but the US dairy industry could be exporting much more to destinations around the world if there was more reliability and predictability in the supply chain.
