BACKGROUND:

 

Subject is engaged in the business of exports of fresh fruits and vegetables to leading Supermarket chains in various parts of Europe, Russia and Hong Kong as well as in Domestic Market. The company is producing Fruit Pulp and Concentrate for both the Domestic and International Customers.

 


OPERATIONS:

 

The year shows a growth in the total income from Rs.935.000 millions to Rs.1147.000 millions an increase of 22.76%, while the profit after tax has grown from Rs.35.370 millions to Rs.56.450 millions an increase of 59.59%. The increase in the Income has come from growth in both their business segments, fresh fruits exports and processed food business. They feel both these segments have a large potential and will continue to grow and contribute to the profits of the company in the coming years.

 

FRESH FRUITS SEGMENT:

 

Demand for Indian grapes continues to grow in the EU markets. Total exports of grapes from India to EU increased from 64,644MT in 2013 season to 80,141MT in 2014 season an increase of 24%. While their Exports of grapes increased from Rs.651.000 millions to Rs.837.000 millions an increase of 28.61%. They are also working on expanding this business in non EU markets. During the 2014 season the business to this market was stagnant but it has a large potential for growth in the coming years.

 

FOOD PROCESSING SEGMENT:

 

During the year their Income from this segment grew from Rs.218.700 millions in 2012-13 to Rs.236.690 in 2013-14 a growth of 8.23%.

During the year, Axis bank has also sanctioned total fresh term loans of Rs.55.000 millions out of which Rs.10.000 millions for expansion of Unit-1, and Rs.45.000 millions for Expansion of unit-4.

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENT:

 

·         Grape exports from India to Europe is the foremost success story of Indian horticultural exports. India is an important supplier of fresh grapes during the summer months to both Europe and the Middle East markets.

·         Over the past few years, new markets such as CIS countries and Far-East have opened up offering alternates and giving the industry a healthy growth prospect. This also reduces the over-dependence of this business on EU and the gulf markets.

·         Modern packhouse facilities with forced air cooling systems, APEDA sponsored traceability systems and Internationally qualified chemical residue testing laboratories have all helped the industry grow exponentially by offering fresh Indian grapes with all required food safety controls.

·         Indian food and food processing industry has seen significant growth and changes over the past few years, driven by changing trend in markets, consumer segment and regulations. These trends, as well as changing demographics, growing population and rapid urbanization are expected to continue in the future and therefore will shape the demand for value added products in the food processing industry. The food processing sector in India is hence an attractive sector for investment and offers significant growth potential to investors.

·         The Indian beverage industry is on a high growth path. Fast urbanisation, growing affluent consumers, changing lifestyles and health considerations are main driving factors behind this growth. The non-alcoholic ready-to-drink beverage market has been recording a compounded annual growth of 13% since 2009 and is one segment that has successfully defied the recessionary trends witnessed almost all across the world and all segments.

 

SEGMENT WISE PERFORMANCE:

 

The Company has identified following segments as reportable segments:

1) Fresh Fruits

2) Food Processing

 

RECENT TRENDS AND FUTURE OUTLOOK:

 

The food processing industry provides vital linkages and synergies between industry and agriculture. The Food Processing Industry sector in India is one of the largest in terms of production, consumption, export and growth prospects. The government has accorded it a high priority, with a number of fiscal reliefs and incentives, to encourage commercialization and value addition to agricultural produce, for minimizing pre/post-harvest wastage, generating employment and export growth. India’s food processing sector covers a wide range of fruits and vegetables.

 

Indian food processing industry is widely recognized as a ‘sunrise industry’ having huge potential for uplifting agricultural economy, creation of large scale processed food manufacturing and food chain facilities, and the resultant generation of employment and export earnings. Over the last few years, there has been a positive growth in ready-to-serve beverages, fruit juices and pulps, dehydrated and frozen fruits and vegetable products, tomato products, convenience vegspice pastes, reasons being increase in consumption by nuclear families, working women, students and single employees staying alone. An increasing acceptance of new products with market development efforts has been witnessed lately given the fact that there is a good international demand for certain fruits and vegetable products. The Indian food processing industry is primarily export oriented. India’s geographical situation gives it the unique advantage of connectivity to Europe, the Middle East and the far-east.
