Williamstown, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/02/2012 -- Despite its maturity, the global market for drinking milk products continued to grow in both retail volume and value in 2011. Consumption increased in emerging markets, supporting global volumes, as wealthier consumers switched from unprocessed to processed formats.
