Galla Foods forays into beverages
14 May, 2008: Galla Foods Private Ltd (GFPL), Chittoor-based exporter of tropical purees, concentrates and fresh fruits launched its mango nectar product - Galla Thick Mango. This marks the company's entry into the Indian fruit beverage market.
GFPL had invested around Rs.70 crore in its manufacturing plants situated on 100 acres, closer to the tropical fruit orchards in Chittoor. This covered doubling the pulp and puree processing capacity to 500 tonne a day, besides setting up a new beverage line with 730,000 litres capacity per month.
GFPL is planning to launch the product in the rest of Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Kerala in the next few months. The idea is to have a pan-India presence, covering 150 cities and towns, by mid 2009.
