In a major strategic development, AWL Agri Business has acquired 80% of the issued and paid-up equity share capital of G.D. Foods Manufacturing (India), making it a subsidiary. This follows the company’s earlier announcement of a definitive agreement to acquire the firm in multiple tranches — starting with an 80% stake in the first tranche, and the remaining 20% to be acquired over the next three years.

The acquisition is part of AWL Agri Business’s strategy to strengthen its presence in Indian kitchens by expanding its range of value-added food products.

AWL Agri Business is among the few large FMCG food companies in India offering a comprehensive range of kitchen essentials including edible oil, wheat flour, rice, pulses, and sugar.
