Evolving at around 8 percent, per year, India’s food processing industry is considered the sunrise sector of the Indian economy due to its large potential for growth, employment and income generation. India ranks second behind China in terms of global food production, and is also the world’s largest producer of many commodities. However, rising concerns with food wastage, the overall low level of processing due to market disconnects between what farmers are producing versus what consumer want, and infrastructure challenges require immediate attention.
