Lactalis Groupe in Packaged Food (World) - New Market Report
Lactalis has become one of the most acquisitive dairy producers over the 2008-2013 period. It moved from fourth to third position in global dairy following the acquisition of Parmalat in 2011.

A comprehensive global strategy will be needed to take advantage of dynamic growth in emerging markets and rein in costs.
