Food processing

The vastness of India combined with poor handling infrastructure and logistics accounts for some 40 percent of raw food- including grains, fruits and vegetables- going wasted in India. The Indian government has launched several initiatives including Food Parks where investors can open processing units to stem this colossal wastage. Financial and technical assistance is offered by the government to investors willing to open food processing units. Canned, dehydrated and frozen food is a growing market in India. Venturing into this sector is a sure way of getting rich quickly.
