Strait of Hormuz Closed but Gulf Dairy Shelves Stayed Full

Strait of Hormuz dairy trade shifted to five smaller Gulf ports after the closure, keeping milk and dairy on supermarket shelves across the region. Vipin Kumar, StoneX VP of Dairy Risk Management - Middle East, joined Nate Donnay, StoneX Director of Dairy Market Insight, to explain how Gulf dairy supply chains adapted when a route carrying about 6% of global dairy trade was cut off. Khor Fakkan, Fujairah, Sohar and Salalah took on major port volumes as the GCC rerouted food imports, and while some brands went missing, shelves in Dubai never ran empty. The disruption has not slowed Middle East food security investment from Almarai and Baladna, while Gulf milk demand shifts toward high-protein drinks from brands such as Al Rawabi and Marmum. 0:00 Strait of Hormuz Dairy Shock 0:39 Gulf Ports Shut Within Days 1:43 Five Gulf Ports Take the Load 2:53 Dubai Shelves Never Went Empty 3:13 Food Security Draws Billions 5:53 Protein Milk Is the New Normal Discover Actionable Dairy Insights with StoneX Plus: https://shop.stonex.com/collections/all?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=sxtv_guest_nate_donnay&utm_content=share Like and subscribe for more financial market insights. #StraitOfHormuz #Dairy #StoneX #VipinKumar
