“Food Processing industry offers much larger potential compared to IT.”
These comments are not an exaggeration, considering the advantages of agro-climatic conditions and enterprising farming community that India possesses. Being the second largest producer of fruits and vegetables and third largest producer of food grains, India enjoys an enviable position. India takes a pride place among the top five or ten countries for many a major crop. These offer exciting opportunity for the sun rise industry – Food Processing in India.
Agriculture is the lifeline to India with nearly two thirds of the population depending on agriculture and with 24% contribution to the nation’s GDP
Favorable climatic conditions and varying climatic zones enable cultivation of multiple crops in more than one season at one place or the other. Systematic planning ensures product availability of many a crop throughout the year.
Opportunities for doing business with Indian Agriculture either in fresh or processed form are immense. Segments offering business opportunities for Domestic and Global markets include:
• Food grains
• Fruits
• Vegetables
• Plantation crops |
• Processed Foods
• Dairy products
• Meat & poultry
• Aqua products |
