Event Summary

A Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce & Industry-Deloitte report projects India's food processing sector will become a $600 billion industry by 2030, driven by value addition, innovation, technology adoption, and exports. The sector is shifting from a volume-driven to a consumer-centric model. Currently, only 12-13% of food output is processed, leaving significant room for growth. Health and functional food categories are growing at 15-20% annually. India — Andhra Pradesh Minister T.G. Bharath announced targets of Rs 30,000 crore investment and 300,000 jobs by 2029.
