Edited by: Olga N

In Peru, where cold chain infrastructure is lacking, technology is enabling access to remote areas facing malnutrition and food insecurity. * Gloria has invested in aseptic packaging technology, including a $30 million aseptic line in Arequipa, to produce long-life dairy products. * This technology operates in a sterile environment, ensuring product safety and preserving flavor without preservatives. * Aseptic packaging uses less energy than conventional thermal treatment, reducing environmental impact. * This innovation allows for the production of protein-rich shakes, pasteurized dairy foods from yogurt, and lactose-free milk with a six-month shelf life.
