266 suppliers are actively offering Milk on the platform, with nearly all of them updating their listings within the last 90 days. This consistent activity means the category is well-maintained and suppliers are likely responsive to buyer needs, even if current inquiries have dipped. For a buyer, that means the market remains dynamic and reliable—suppliers are not just posting once and leaving, but regularly refreshing their offers. There are 1,509 active listings across the Milk category, covering a wide range of types, packaging, and specifications. This depth ensures that a buyer can find a close match for their exact requirements without needing to start from scratch or rely on generic quotes. The volume also suggests that suppliers treat Milk as a core product line, not a side offering. Milk is supplied by 44 countries, offering broad geographic diversity. This wide reach means buyers can source from a variety of regions, which helps in evaluating differences in quality, cost, or regulatory compliance—especially useful for those looking to diversify supply chains or avoid regional disruptions. Only 1 buyer inquiry came in over the last 30 days, a sharp 85.7% drop from the previous period. This sudden drop may signal a temporary slowdown in demand, but given that 26 suppliers updated their listings recently, the market is still active and responsive—buyers should monitor closely, as interest could rebound quickly.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Milk listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 20 October 2026 - 1,509 active listings, 160 buyer requests, 116 source documents, and 620 supply observations from the full 365-day window. External export benchmarks are cited separately and never mixed into Freshdi figures.
All prices are FOB, in USD per metric ton; quotes on other Incoterms are converted to a FOB equivalent. Freshdi does not hold a CIF price series for Milk, so no landed-cost comparison is possible from this data.
Product freshness counts listings created or updated. Supplier activity counts sellers by their last update. The two are different measurements and will not agree.
Freshdi reprocesses market data every hour, with one snapshot a day for trends. This page's figures, certification coverage included, refresh every 14 days on a rolling 365-day window.
