Production Commenced — What It Means

The Rajkot Main Plant has officially resumed manufacturing activities, marking a significant recovery milestone for the company. With an installed capacity of 1,05,233 MTPA, the facility is designed to produce a diverse range of snack products including Gathiya, Namkeen, and extruded snacks. This resumption follows the successful reinstatement of the manufacturing units and the acquisition of necessary clearances from government authorities.

While the main production lines are now operational, work continues on the reconstruction of the corporate office and ancillary support buildings, which does not currently hinder production workflows.

Path to This Milestone

  • Manufacturing at Rajkot was suspended following a fire incident in December 2024
  • Company obtained necessary approvals from relevant government authorities for reinstatement
  • Ancillary plants for Papad, Spices, and Besan remained unaffected and operational during the period
  • Consolidation involves the planned discontinuation of operations at the Gondal facility
  • Strategic shift aims to streamline the manufacturing footprint near ancillary units

Revenue and Profitability Impact

Consolidating production at the Rajkot facility is expected to enhance overall profitability by reducing the operational overhead previously incurred at the Gondal site. The Rajkot plant utilizes a boiler-based system, which is projected to lower power consumption costs significantly compared to older systems. Furthermore, the facility's location offers strategic proximity to major dealers in the Saurashtra region, which is anticipated to drive down logistics and transportation expenses.

Reduced labor costs and synergies with nearby ancillary units are expected to further bolster margins as the plant ramps up to its full capacity.
