Some people who are accustomed to the dairy's products are nostalgic about it.{{fact|date=August 2020}}

==History==
Nariman Ardeshir,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.firstpost.com/tag/nariman-ardeshir|title=Nariman Ardeshir|work=Firstpost|access-date=25 August 2015}}</ref> a Parsi entrepreneur, established the Parsi dairy farm in 1916. It continued to serve south Bombay households and other districts of Mumbai. The branches are at Dadar, and several districts of Bombay. Parsi milk dairy has reduced from supplying 15,000 litres of milk a day to barely 2,000 litres today. The major bulk of the purchasers are from south Mumbai, from Walkeshwar to Cuffe Parade and Colaba.{{fact|date=August 2020}}

Presently, the dairy business of Parsi milk dairy is not very lucrative.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://food.ndtv.com/food-drinks/the-legendary-parsi-dairy-farm-in-mumbai-may-shut-down-1210339|title=Legendary Parsi Dairy Farm in Mumbai Heading Towards Its Decline?|date=14 July 2017|first=Harnoor | last=Channi-Tiwary|work=food.ndtv.com|access-date=24 August 2018}}</ref> The Parsi dairy farm was established on agricultural land in Warvada village, at the Maharashtra-Gujarat border. The family bought the plot in 1968 for livestock and to support its dairy activities. Now it is expected to fetch around Rs 200 crore. During 2006 A labour strike was organised, which crippled the dairy business. The Nariman family claims that the annual turnover today is around Rs 10 crore. Many other competitors are in the market in [[Mumbai]], and around Maharashtra.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://dairy.maharashtra.gov.in/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=15:statistics&catid=2:uncategorised&Itemid=129&lang=en|title=Statistics|author=|work=Maharashtra.gov.in|access-date=25 August 2015}}</ref>

The Narimans appointed a real estate consultant, Pranay Vakil of Praron Consultancy, to advise them on the land sale. However, it was reported in late August 2015 that the dairy's owners stated that it will not close.<ref>{{cite web | title=Mumbai's Parsi Dairy Will Not Close, Say Owners | website=NDTV.com | date=24 August 2015 | url=http://www.ndtv.com/india-news/mumbais-parsi-dairy-will-not-close-say-owners-1210587 | ref={{sfnref | NDTV.com | 2015}} | access-date=25 August 2015}}</ref>
