Tangkor Yak Product Cooperative was formed in 2010 with the purpose of improving the livelihood of Tibetan nomads while sustaining the nomadic culture of Tibet. We add value to the traditional yak dairies by helping them to make their products available to the right markets. We produce and sell natural, additive free yogurt at regional markets, and we are currently working to expand our product line with the introduction of organic Tibetan yak cheese to the US market.
