HyFun Foods Unveils New Brand Identity and Announces Ambitious Expansion Plans

Mayo 13, 2024

HyFun Foods, a major player in the frozen food industry based in India, has announced a fresh brand identity and ambitious expansion plans focused on the Indian market. This comes alongside a significant investment of INR 1,100 crore (USD 134.9 million) in India’s Gujarat province to establish three new state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities.

The new investment will come through a combination of internal funds and bank loans. Founded in 2015, HyFun has experienced significant growth, achieving over INR 1000 crore (USD 122.6 million) in revenue last year. The company attributes this success to its unique "seed-to-shelf" model.

Haresh Karamchandani, Managing Director & CEO at HyFun Foods:
 

"Hyfun's comprehensive visibility spans from the germplasm stage grown in labs to the seed potato planted in the ground by farmers to the commercial crop in cold storages, all before processing in the Company's state-of-the-art plant."
