Social media enabled global knowledge sharing has contributed to rising awareness about dietary impact on health, highlighting rice as a healthy food source, easily digestible by the body. With this, the global demand for Basmati rice has risen incrementally, with the North American, European, and Middle Eastern markets importing increasing quantities. Along with this growth, there is also a shift in demand, with stronger focus on premium quality basmati rice. Specialty ranges like organic, pesticide-free, and brown basmati rice are growing in demand, with consumers focusing on quality rather than price.
In this domain, Kishanmal Foods Pvt. Ltd. (KFPL), a legacy brand with over 35 years of existence in the rice manufacturing and processing industry, stands out as a trusted provider. Anchored by the pillars of truth, trust, and transparency, set by the Late Kishanmal Rohira, the company has achieved a distinctive position in this competitive landscape, marked by integrity in every grain it delivers. As a leading supplier of premium basmati rice to a global audience, the company has recently inaugurated its second milling plant, and expanded production capabilities to robustly fulfill the rising demand. The second milling plant is run under Savitri Global Exports, and operations of both the companies are jointly managed.
