Some agriculturalists have started drawing loop holes into this milk company saying that soon it may collapse after this scandal came in few days after it stopped buying milk from farmers in western Uganda as the milk war with Kenya takes toll on the company since most of its processed milk is exported to Kenya.

David Mwine, the chairman of the Rukaka Dairy Farmers Cooperative Society Limited in Rubindi, whom we visited in march 2020 revealed that he was supplying the milk to the company, however for a long time, they have been unable to take milk to the processor.

When our reporter visited the Koranorya-based factory on Monday, he was told by an official there that no visitors were allowed because the factory was not operating. The company has not released formal comment on its closure, which is believed to be a temporary one.
