Breast milk substitute and localization


According to media reports, domestic producers of DS-90 (demineralized whey) cover 90% of the needs of Russian producers of BMS (breast milk substitutes).

P.S.: In this regard, in 2023, the Ministry of Agriculture limited imports of DC-90 from countries subject to the Russian embargo to 1.5 tons.

The main suppliers of DS-90 are Agrocomplex named after. Tkachev”, “Molvest” and “Savushkin Product”. In addition, they supply protein concentrates, which are also used in the production of BMS.

But vitamin-mineral complexes are not produced in Russia; these are complex prescription products, and large companies prefer to order them from world leaders. A similar situation occurs with complex carbohydrate and fat bases, which are also included in BMS. Their share in the volume of mixtures is small, the market can be called extremely narrow, and there is no point in localizing their production in the country.
