Mumbai, 7 August, 2025: Khetika, one of India’s largest clean and healthy food brands in the staples category, has announced the launch of its new manufacturing facility today. The facility is dedicated exclusively to its fresh product category, including preservative-free batters and chutneys. Located in Taloja Industrial Area, near Panvel, Maharashtra, the facility strategically positions the brand to better serve growing demand in Western India.
Spread across 5,000 sq. ft., the Mumbai plant is equipped with cutting-edge automation and modular infrastructure to support not just high-volume production but also future innovation in the fresh food space. Currently, the unit manufactures 11 SKUs from Khetika’s FRESH range and can produce up to 20 tons of batters per day. This capacity is expected to scale further in alignment with consumer demand.
“This launch marks a pivotal milestone in Khetika’s journey of bringing clean, honest, and authentic Indian food closer to urban kitchens,” said Dr. Prithwi Singh, Co-founder and CEO of Khetika. “The Mumbai facility allows us to reduce turnaround time significantly — ensuring that our zero-preservative products reach consumers within 24 hours of production. More importantly, it reinforces our commitment to innovation, sustainability, and farm-to-fork freshness.”
Khetika’s clean-label promise continues to be powered by direct sourcing from farmers across India such as turmeric from Sangli, chillies from Guntur, moong from Rajasthan, ensuring the best ingredients from their native regions while supporting farming communities.
The plant strengthens Khetika’s existing hub-and-spoke model and streamlines operations for faster, fresher distribution. With Mumbai’s access to high-demand consumption zones and key logistics corridors, the facility will play a vital role in boosting supply chain efficiency, reducing cost-to-serve, and enabling regional scalability.
In line with the company’s sustainability vision, the new facility uses recyclable packaging and is gradually transitioning its last-mile logistics fleet to electric vehicles (EVs), supporting the brand’s broader zero-waste and low-emissions goals.
