About UsIn early 1960s, when Mr. Mahadev Shahra went about convincing farmers in M.P., about the potential of Soya, he would not have imagined that he will be instrumental in bringing up a small green revolution in the State, by introducing and encouraging Soya bean cultivation on a commercial scale. The family was in the business of commodities trading and subsequently, they entered the business of ginning and oil milling. The family's efforts, along with that of the others, resulted in Soya revolution in M.P. Today M.P. is considered as Soya bowl of the country, and contributes to 70% of its production. Despite all odds, Ruchi Soya is now the largest player in the country in edible oils, Soya foods and processed foods categories. This is largely due to its strict quality commitment and continuous innovation to keep with the times. Also, Ruchi Soya has evolved from being a large manufacturing firm to a respected brand, keeping in line with the FMCG players. Its Nutrela and Ruchi Gold brands have captured leading positions in the Soya foods and edible oils categories respectively. Ruchi Soya has also ventured into other businesses like bakery specialties, where it foresees a big potential for growth. With Ruchi's innate manufacturing and logistics advantages, and its foray into the branded sector, one only sees immense potential for growth in the future
