    This article also says in most super-markets, the dairy & cow's milk
    area is placed at the back of the store.

    I notice the stacks of bottled water are placed at the front of the
    grocery store.

    No wonder that the human consumption of cow's milk has been flat
    for sixty years.

    They place it at the back of the store so it'll be one of the last
    things you put into your cart. This reduces the amount of time it has
    to warm up before you get it home and into the fridge.

    They put the milk in the back of the store so that you will need to go through
    all the other stuff and pick out things that are not on your shopping list.
    Actually the fresh food is on the sides and back of the store (veggies and
    fruit, meat, dairy, etc. So to get fresh food you have to work the perimeter of
    the store.

    "Milk stores", which evolved into baby supermarkets, advertise milk at
    loss-leader prices. Placing it at the back makes it more likely that the
    customer will buy something they make money on whilst headed for the white
    gold.

    My local milk store owners come from places where they often don't.

    This is also true. However, in my local stores, all the frozen and
    refrigerated stuff is at the back of the store.

    Most of those small local stores have all the refrigerated cabinets
    along the walls, which makes sense from an organizational point of
    view. You do have to walk past other stuff to get to the milk, but
    not always very much stuff.
