Building a better tomorrow through sustainable dairy practices
At mooMark, we believe that the true measure of a business lies in its positive impact on communities and the environment. Our mission extends beyond profitability, focusing on creating a dairy ecosystem grounded in sustainable practices, social equity, and environmental responsibility.
Our vision is to significantly improve farm profitability via value-added, technology-led platform services, sustainably. We aim to drive inclusive and responsible growth in rural India through our dairy-led food value chain platform, which enhances productivity, quality, and traceability.
Our initiatives are thoughtfully crafted to be both ecologically responsible and socially inclusive, delivering lasting value across our entire ecosystem – farmers, customers, investors, and employees alike.
Our initiatives: Strong focus on SDG
Our commitment to select Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) underpins our dedication to ethical business practices. Through targeted interventions and strategic partnerships, we aim to make a lasting, positive impact on communities and the environment, reinforcing our role as a responsible, forward-thinking leader in the dairy industry.
Our milk supply chain begins at the farm level and extends to our processing plants uniquely supported by state-of-the-art technologies. We have strategically integrated sustainability and gender equality initiatives at each node of this supply chain, creating a ripple effect of positive societal impact.

Our initiatives: Empowering women
mooMark’s women empowerment initiatives aim to enhance the financial independence and decision-making capabilities of its women farmers, offering them direct access to financial products and dairy resources. By formally registering female farmers, ensuring direct payments to their bank accounts, and prioritizing loan access, we aim to give them greater control of their financial destinies.
At our extension points, rural women become mooMark Service Providers for milk collection, financial, and input services, transforming them into micro-entrepreneurs. They also serve as local banking correspondents, providing essential services within their villages and inculcating the culture of saving. We upskill our service providers to build additional revenue streams through regular training programs. This includes multiple training sessions – on loan sourcing & disbursal, cash withdrawal, and account opening – leveraging our mobile application.
