City-based fruit juice maker Manpasand Beverages has set up a Rs 160-crore manufacturing facility in Ambala, Haryana which will significantly scale up its production capacity, a top official said today.
"The company has invested Rs 160 crore for setting up this plant which will result in the production going up by 45,000-50,000 cases per day," Manpasand Beverages Chairman and Managing Director Dhirendra Singh told PTI.
The facility will cater to the growing demand for the company's brands Mango Sip and Fruits Up, he said.
Singh said the company funded the unit from its Rs 400-crore IPO launched last year.
Manpasand's existing capacity stands at 1,20,000-1,25,000 cases per day.
"The demand for our fruit juices under the Mango Sip and Fruits Up brands is so large that we need to continuously add new capacities.
"The facility will produce the entire range of Fruits Up drinks, carbonated and non-carbonated, along with our flagship brand Mango Sip. From a strategic point of view, this facility will give us an upper hand in reaching out to markets in North and North-Eastern India," he said.
With this, Manpasand now has five manufacturing plants. The other four are located in Vadodara (two) and one each in Varanasi and Dehradun.
The company is planning to set up a new plant in South India, Singh said, without identifying the location.
