In the item posted by Janice about fencing of stolen formula by a wholesaler
in the US contained the information that 17 000 cans of formula would
generate $200 000 in revenue.  That's eight dollars and fifty cents per can.

My question is, how big are the cans, and would this be ready to feed, or
powder?   If it is ready to feed, I assume an opened can is only good for a
day or at most two, if scrupulously refrigerated?  
Are these cans big enough to supply all the milk for a baby for 24 hours, or
would they need more than one can?

Hope someone can answer this.

I just did the math and can report that to feed one infant artificially
using commercially manufactured milk powder in Norway costs about fifty
dollars per month.  Doubt that there would be any kind of market for hot
formula, as the cost here is already within reach of anyone with a child.
Stores are not allowed to give discounts nor to do promos of formula.
