Global Dairy Trade (GDT) and Arla Foods announce that Arla will begin offering European-sourced Skim Milk Powder (SMP) on GDT Pulse from May 2025, as part of an extension to the GDT Pulse pilot. “We’re excited to welcome Arla to GDT Pulse,” said Justin Matijasevich, Interim CEO of Global Dairy Trade. “Their participation will expand opportunities for buyers and add further momentum to the GDT Pulse pilot.”

Arla’s SMP will be available through GDT Pulse auctions held during non-GDT Event weeks, offering buyers more frequent price signals and purchasing opportunities. Arla’s first GDT Pulse Auction is scheduled for PA079 on 12 May 2025.

“Joining GDT Pulse is a natural evolution of our sales strategy,” said Thomas Carstensen, Senior Vice President of Arla Foods. “It allows us a flexible new way to connect with customers and offer our products more frequently. We’re pleased to be part of this development and look forward to seeing how it supports our global buyers.”
