BAKERY BUSINESS Products

Biscuit

Biscuit, as India’s largest food category, is considered as an essential, in practically every Indian family consumption basket. It is one of the most deeply penetrated categories in the country, reaching over 90% of the households.

The per capita consumption of biscuit in India is comparatively low at 2 kgs versus 10 kgs in certain developed countries. The low per capita consumption and high levels of penetration provide a good base to increase consumption through appropriate business strategies.

Cake

Cake is an evolving category which has witnessed some breakthrough developments in formats, pricing and variants in the last few years. The category growths have slowed down due to sluggish economic conditions and there has been significant increase in the competitive activity.

Rusk

Rusk is a traditional category with a reasonable level of unorganized play. The category has not witnessed any significant technology changes or product innovation in India. This category, however, has multiple value-added product offerings in other countries.

Bread

Bread is considered as a staple food in many parts of our country. Consumer preference for healthy & premium products is providing significant opportunity in this category.

DAIRY BUSINESS Products

India is the largest producer and consumer of dairy products and currently contributes ~20% of the global production. This category, is currently dominated largely by unorganized players.

The organized segment of the Indian Dairy Industry is growing and has a great role to play in the future development and growth of the industry.

In the past few years, the processed milk products market has witnessed sustained growth due to increasing urbanization, rising disposable income and proliferation of retail outlets beyond Tier 1 cities. While packaged liquid milk will remain a key driver of the industry growth, value added dairy products are also expected to witness healthy growth.

ADJACENT BUSINESS Products

Cream Wafers

Wafers is a ~ Rs 700 Crores category growing at a healthy pace and your Company is the first branded player with a large national presence to enter this fragmented category. The fragmented and unorganized nature of the segment offers tremendous opportunities for growth.

Center Filled Croissants

It is practically a new category in India. However, itis a very large category in many developing countries in the world. Your Company’s entry into this nascent category is based on the tremendous potential it holds, given the shifts in the lifestyle and consumption habits of the youth.

Salted Snacks

Snacking is inherent to Indian food culture and is an important category of your Company’s adjacent business. It has traditionally implied a variety of sensorial experiences in terms of flavour, taste, shape, texture, ingredients, appearance & accompaniments.
The category is very large and highly competitive with more than 2000 players operating in it. Migration from unorganized or local to branded products will drive growth for national players like Britannia.
