VENKATARAMANA FOOD SPECIALITIES LIMITED LTD

Sm foods (a division of vfsl), pioneer of ''ready-to-eat'' snacks and non-ship snack food segment, took the first step in this direction with the installation of a fully automatic pellet processing line imported from mapimpianti, Italy. The idea was to process and popularize a range of high quality pelleted products as a snack food variant in India. Sm foods launched its own range of pelleted snack foods in various flavours, shapes and sizes. This met with instant consumer acceptance. The division has now added a host of new brands that have also been success stories. Our products are available in over 1.5 million retail counters across India and serviced by a distribution network of more than 300 stockists. We have strategically placed multiple manufacturing locations across the country to ensure availability and catering to regional flavour. The company has simultaneously started development of tomato ketchup and Indian ethnic range of food products like pickles, spices and papads under the brand name ''sampoorn''. The company is also into procurement and marketing of chocolates, fruit juices, canned juices, fruit jellies etc. For this purpose it has entered into marketing tie-ups with reputed manufacturers in India and abroad. Sm foods has ambitious plans to capture the overseas markets. Currently we are exporting our various products to neighboring countries and the middle east.
