The Comp. was originally incorporated for carrying on the business of Poultry Farming & Breeding. However, it couldn't undertake the project due overall recession faced by poultry industry during that period. Therefore, the promoters consciously decided to concentrate on the broiler breeding activity carried on by group companies. Subsequently, as the industry started recovering from its bad phase during 1992, the prospects of poultry industry looked bright. There was also an upsurge in demand of poultry meat which was due to the unprecedented hike in prices of other meat substitutes like fish, mutton etc. Realising this the promoters decided to setup the present process of poultry processing plant to cater to the increasing demand for poultry meat.
The Comp. has no subsidiaries.
