Our processing facility employs state-of-the-art technology to ensure the highest quality standards while preserving the nutritional value of our dairy products. We follow strict hygiene protocols and quality control measures at every stage of production.
Through value addition, we've expanded our market reach beyond the immediate region, supplying products to supermarkets, hotels, and institutions across Western Uganda. Our diversified product range caters to different consumer preferences and income levels.
Our value addition initiatives provide multiple benefits to both farmers and consumers:
Higher returns for farmers through premium product pricing
Reduced seasonal fluctuations in milk demand and pricing
Job opportunities in processing, packaging, and distribution
Entry into formal retail markets and institutional supplies
Registered under the cooperatives act of 1963 Reg. No. 2211 dated 1966, Toro Dairy Cooperative Society Limited is a membership-based, member-used and member-controlled organization owned by individual shareholders who are primarily dairy farmers in the Rwenzori region.
We have 375 registered members across Kabarole, Fort Portal, and Bunyangabu, with about 50% being active due to logistical constraints. The Dairy operates from our own permanent building located at Rukiidi III Street, Fort Portal City.
On average, we handle about 5,000 litres of fresh milk daily, with the potential to sell 20,000 litres per day. Our products reach consumers in Bundibugyo, Kasese, Kyenjojo and neighboring districts.
