Emami Agrotech Ltd, the Rs 20,000-crore edible oil, food and bio-diesel arm of the diversified Emami Group, on Tuesday announced its foray into the branded staples market.
The move marks the company's expansion into India's over Rs 80,000 crore branded staples category, as part of its strategy to scale the foods vertical to Rs 2,000 crore in the next three-five years, an official said in a statement.
The company announced the launch of Emami Healthy & Tasty branded atta, maida and sooji.
"More than a category entry, this is a purposeful move... With this launch, we intend to enter from pantry to the centre of the Indian kitchen space and be an integral part of daily rituals, family meals, and emotional bonds around food," Emami Group Director Vibhash V Agarwal said.
The Indian food industry is witnessing a steady shift towards branded staples, with consumers increasingly preferring hygiene, packaging and brand assurance over unbranded alternatives, the statement said.
Emami Agrotech, an unlisted entity, said it aims to capitalise on this momentum with products backed by its established distribution network and digitally enabled supply chain.
Since its launch in 2010, Emami Agrotech's Healthy & Tasty brand has expanded beyond edible oils to spices and soya chunks. With the addition of branded staples, the company said it intends to strengthen its position as a comprehensive kitchen solutions brand.
