Navabharat Limited
Navabharat Limited was incorporated in 1992 in the state of Andhra Pradesh, as an agri-based business. It was established as part of a reputed agri-commodity family conglomerate in the coastal districts of AP and has evolved from its early palm-plantation business into an integrated edible oil refining company, with interests in plantation, crushing and refining. Navabharat was the first company to introduce the oil palm cultivation in the state with help from the Govt. of A.P. Today, Navabharat Limited has built in capacity to process 850 metric tons of edible oil per day and sells most of it to over 150 customers in 2 states. Part of the growth journey involves migration from an entirely business-to-business bulk processing operation to retail in Andhra Pradesh & Telangana with the vision expand to other markets in the Southern peninsula in the future. As the company prepares to grow in the refined oil consumer business (both palm & other edible oils - sunflower, rice bran oil etc.,) under its own brand names, we expect readiness to launch in this new decade. Currently, the company is amidst sharpening its product portfolio for consumer preferences that have emerged over the last decade.
