India second largest producer in Fruits and Vegetables in the world with
a production of 256 million MT (Source: MOFPI).
India world’s largest producer of bananas, papaya, mangoes & guavas
second largest producer of potatoes, green peas, cabbage and
cauliflower
The unique advantage of connectivity to Europe, the Middle East, Japan,
Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia and Korea
Nearly 4.6-15.9 % wastage in fruits and vegetables annually
Hence opportunities in post harvest/logistics/processing sectors
including in food safety segment

Opportunities In Dairy Sector
World leader in milk production: 146 million tonnes/annum
Expected to reach 180 million MT by 2020, while the demand
projected (by NDDB) to reach 200 million MT
Huge scope for value added dairy products like ghee, flavoured milk &
yogurt, butter (& variants), cheese, etc.
Scope for innovative packaging, cold chain and new technology for
product processing.
PI Industries Ltd
Opportunities In Poultry Sector
5
Annual egg production: 75 billion eggs (Source: MOFPI).
The current processing level in poultry : only 6 %.
Poultry is a highly vertically integrated industry in India and matches the
efficiency levels of many western countries.
Farm automation, logistics, processing, point of sale cold storage
infrastructure and new technology offer opportunity
Need for egg powder plants.
Scope for new feed formulations and manufacturing.

• Lack of modern post-harvesting practices
• Poor infrastructure facilities for
• Storage, including cold storage
• Logistics & cold chain handling
• Transportation
• Processing
• Packaging
• Distribution
• Lack of Processing facilities at the farm gate
• Dearth of Innovative on-farm preservation systems

Requirement: Investment in Post-Harvest Infrastructure
8/14/2022
• Production of more than 400 million MT of perishables every year.
• Cold storage capacity around 31.8 million MT (Source: NHB).
• Geographically clustered facilities
– 4 states provide around 70% of cold store capacity
• Overall average capacity utilization in cold storage is 75% - showing sustainability of
the cold chain business in India.
• Industry is largely fragmented and unorganized.
• Dominated by one or two products
– 75% cold storage capacity used for potato
– 25 % multi-commodity cold storages
• Pre-coolers and refer trucks facilities are negligible at present.
• 92% of cold storages owned and operated by private sector.
• Large capacity in cold storage, CA storage, reefers, ripening chambers, IQF, milk
chilling and processing, etc.
• Requirement for cold chain across all states.
• Need for energy efficient cold chain technologies in the entire agri & food value
chain.
