They are building India’s first integrated plant-based meat facility which would act as a center of excellence with its latest extrusion technology from Europe. The high moisture extrusion technology helps to get textures that are very close to chicken, fish, pork meat etc.
Their upcoming production facility is located an hour’s drive from Delhi. They are also installing best in class processing lines to provide a consistent quality product to our customers globally.
The plant production capacity is estimated to be 4000 MT tonne per year in the first phase.
