LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

History

 

Incorporated in 1967, Foods and Inns (FIL) is engaged in the business of processing food products and fruits. Its manufacturing facilities are located in Bombay and Nashik. Sam Manekshaw M C is the Chairman of the company.  
 
 FIL's export-oriented processed food and vegetable unit located in Nashik went on stream in Nov.'94. In 1994-95, FIL commenced commercial production of its project for frozen mango pulp and vegetables. Dravya Finance and Asim Exports International are 100% subsidiaries of FIL. It is the first company in India to export egg powder and has obtained repeat orders for the same. It has developed a new product for a soft-drink company. It has also exported lychees, a seasonal fruit. 
 
 The company exports its products in industrial and consumer packs to the UK, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Japan, Germany and West Asia. During the year, the company sold its poultry division to Bhairavnath Poultry Farm Pvt Ltd, to concentrate on its core business of food processing. 
 
 In 1998-99, it made a preferential allotment of 1,75,820 equity shares of Rs. 10/- each at a premium of Rs. 50/- per share to a non-residential director of the company.

 

 

 
 OPERATIONS: 
 
 During the year the turnover of the Company improved by 9% attaining Rs.680.800 Millionsas compared to Rs. 623.700 Millions for year ended on 30th September, 2003. The severe competition in the international market and high raw material cost had its double edged effect on profitability of the Company. Inspite, the Company has registered a cash profit of Rs. 14.563 Millions . The net profit is Rs. 6.958 Millions compared to Rs. 14.749 Millions of the previous year. For the current year, dividend is not recommended by the Directors. 
 
FUTURE PROSPECTS : 
 
 The Company has identified new export markets as potential growth areas. The Company has been making conscious attempts to understand and exploit the new markets. The export orders include repeat orders from existing customers as well as from new customers. To meet with the growing demand of the products, Company has installed a new Aseptic Line at Bulsar. Similarly a new Fruit Processing & Pulping line has been commissioned during the season at Chittoor. These additions reduce our dependence on other processors. The full benefit of this additional capacity will be available in the coming year. The Company has incurred capital expenditure amounting to Rs.68.239 Millions during the year (corresponding period amount expended Rs.31.363 Millions ) 

 

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE: 
 
 Though Clause 49 of the Listing Agreement relating to Corporate Governance is not applicable to the Company as per schedule of implementation contained therein. The Company is gearing up and designing structure of review and authorisation in addition to strong internal Audit procedure. The Company is also in the process of establishing effective mechanism by defining the role and responsibilities of senior executive of the company to ensure accountability and required level transparency.
