Interested in exploring opportunities for food and beverage processing in India? As the world’s fifth largest economy, India contains multiple and varied opportunities for food processors, which are only expected to grow over the coming years. To cater for this burgeoning demand, JBT will be exhibiting at Anuga FoodTec India 2024 from August 28-30 where visitors can learn how JBT’s cutting-edge technologies are revolutionizing the food and beverage industries.
So why is India such an exciting market? According to the India government-funded India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), the country’s food processing sector is expected to be worth US$1,274 billion by 2027 from US$866 billion in 2022, driven by changing lifestyles, a rising population and urbanization.
Food processors currently account for 32% of India’s food and grocery market – already the sixth-largest worldwide.
At Anuga FoodTec India 2024, which will take place at the Bombay Exhibition Centre in Mumbai, JBT will be highlighting its status as a global leader in innovative food processing solutions to showcase the future of food processing.
“JBT’s aseptic line provides the highest return on investment, lowest total cost of ownership, highest quality beverages with particle sizes up to 9x9x9mm, highest food safety with minimal connectors, and the ability to handle high viscosity creams and puddings without blockage,” says JBT Vice President for Greater India, Vikram Mulmule.
“Whether it’s the precision required for dairy processing or the intricate handling of juices with particles, JBT’s advanced technologies guarantee quality and efficiency at every step.”
Innovative Juice and Dairy Processing
One of the industries experiencing the fastest growth across Asia is dairy, and here JBT offers solutions that give customers a competitive edge. JBT’s systems provide precise control over pasteurization, homogenization, and filling processes, guaranteeing product safety and taste.
Take the growing global market for RTD dairy beverages in metal cans. Driven by a rising standard of living in Asia, Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa, consumption of RTD coffee beverages – most of which are dairy-based – is expected to reach almost US$49.4 billion in value by 2028, according to analyst GlobalData.
The global leader in primary packaging technology for high quality RTD dairy beverages in cans, JBT is the only supplier that can offer filling, seaming, sterilization, and line integration technologies from one single source.
With canning speeds ranging from 150 cpm to as high as 1500 cpm, JBT also owns the title of “supplier of the fastest canning line on the planet” across a number of lines, including evaporated milk, plain milk and sweetened condensed milk.
Meanwhile, the rise in demand for beverages containing high-quality fruit fibers, particles or pulp is transforming the beverage industry across much of the world, including Asia.
JBT’s VAHP (Vacuum Assisted High Precision) Granular Filler offers processors an exceptional solution to meet this demand that combines high filling accuracy, gentle product handling, and minimal product loss through its unique vacuum-assisted, pre-measuring pocket system.
