With its commitment to quality, sustain ability, & global expansion, Kuber Agro Industries is not just setting standards but nourishing communities worldwide
Kuber Agro Industries' procurement process is very hands-on and direct, the firm buys rice directly from farmers at the ground level, across different mandis in various cities and states. After purchasing, the rice undergoes quality control where the company segregates and differentiates between all the qualities and varieties. The product is then transported to the manufacturing unit where it is stored under optimal conditions. The company ages the rice for a minimum of eight to fifteen months to enhance its quality.
Once aged, the rice goes through a meticulous process starting with steaming, washing, and drying to achieve a uniform moisture level. The firm’s milling process involves removing the husk and bran layers, cleaning the rice, and using optical sorting to eliminate discolored grains. Post this, the rice is grated, separating broken grains from whole ones and ready to use.
Charting a Global Course
The firm's plan is anchored in a steadfast commitment to its vision: delivering superior-quality rice at competitive prices, without diverting attention to other ventures. With a current presence in 31 countries, Kuber Agro Industries aims to significantly broaden its global footprint, envisioning operations in over 100 countries within the next three years. Alongside this expansion, the firm is diligently nurturing local domestic brands, attracting a growing customer base every day. This concerted effort reflects their aspiration to not only penetrate but also thrive in diverse markets worldwide, ensuring their products are accessible to consumers across the globe.
