Leche Gloria S.A. challenges Peru’s Supreme Decree 004-2022-MIDAGRI, which alters evaporated milk production and labelling rules. The company’s appeal moves to the Constitutional Court’s full bench for a final decision. The ruling will determine whether the decree’s requirements on milk labelling stand or are overturned.
Peru consumes more evaporated milk than any other dairy product, surpassing cheese in household usage. Official data from MIDAGRI and Inacal confirms evaporated milk leads the market, contrasting with trends in other Latin American countries where pasteurized or UHT liquid milk dominates. The preference highlights Peru’s unique dairy consumption patterns.
Gloria Foods sustains its iconic milk cans as a staple in Peruvian households after over eight decades. The brand preserves consumer trust through consistent quality, adapting to changing distribution and sustainability demands. The cans remain a symbol of reliability amid shifting market trends.
Leche Gloria S.A. reports a **15.3% rise in net sales** to **S/ 1,185.1 million** in Q1 2026, driven by stronger domestic demand for evaporated milk, dairy derivatives, and beverages. The company strengthens its market leadership in Peru’s mass-consumption sector through expanded product sales. Operational efficiency improvements contribute to sustained financial growth.
