NAIROBI, June 1 (Xinhua) The demand for camel milk has gone up in Kenya, Uganda and Rwanda in the past year amid a quest to boost immunity against COVID-19, industry leaders said Tuesday during World Milk Day.
Bashir Warsame, founder of the Nairobi-based camel milk and camel yoghurt producer Nuug Camel Milk, said camel milk demand by households and retail chains across the region grew last year as consumers turned to natural immune boosters against the coronavirus. To adapt to COVID-19 we put more emphasis on home delivery as we have seen around a 30 percent increase in home delivery and 20 percent increase in supermarket demand, Warsame said in a statement issued in Nairobi.
