Global dairy giant Arla Foods plans to expand its operations in Bangladesh with a focus on affordable nutrition, local talent and long-term investment in the country’s dairy sector, according to Magnus Glennborn, vice-president and head of Southeast Asia at the company.

Arla, the world's fourth-largest dairy company, started its journey more than a hundred years ago with milk from its dairy farms in Europe. Raw materials for various dairy products are taken from around 8,400 farmer-owners.
