13. Verka as Brand
Today, Verka has out stripped its own boundaries to reach our homes.
Verka was there before it came to MILKFED. But then, it was the
difference between being there and making it big. When we at milkfed
took it on, we believed that it had potential to do a lot more. And it did.
With little more of a consumer oriented approach, Verka became a brand
to reckon with. With its growing outlets and thus easier availability, it
reached far and wide across the state and beyond. To people today,
Verka is a part of their daily lives.
