Deepak Agarwal Managing Director,Bikaji Foods International Limited.
This year the Company has delivered a 10.3% volume and 14.8% of value growth YOY, driven by strong demand across our core product lines. Despite good top-line growth, gross margins were slightly impacted due to unexpected and significant inflationary pressure on key raw materials. While we had measures in place to mitigate cost volatility, the sharp and unanticipated increase in input prices particularly in edible oil put temporary pressure on profitability.
The year has been marked by robust growth, strategic advancements, and a steadfast commitment to delivering value to our stakeholders. While rural markets began showing encouraging signs of recovery post the first half, urban demand remains in a gradual recovery phase. Our growth was driven by focused execution, improved penetration, and strong brand resilience.
To remain ahead in an increasingly competitive snacks and sweets market, we are sharpening our focus on product innovation and data-led distribution. We are leveraging advanced analytics to optimize channel strategies and improve regional product mixes. Additionally, investments in supply chain automation, digital marketing, and strategic partnerships will play a key role in expanding both reach and relevance.
