Food Manufacturing Business Setup in Odisha & India
Food manufacturing is the process of converting agricultural
products, food ingredients or other permitted raw materials
into processed, packaged or finished food products for
commercial sale. Food manufacturing businesses may include
small processing units, commercial food factories, packaged
food manufacturers and specialized food processing units.
Starting a food manufacturing business requires more than
establishing a production facility. Entrepreneurs should
evaluate the proposed products, manufacturing activities,
premises, machinery, storage, food safety systems,
packaging, labelling, workforce, taxation and applicable
regulatory requirements before commencing commercial
operations.
BBSR Services provides food manufacturing business consultancy
across India, with a strong focus on Odisha and Bhubaneswar.
We help businesses understand the applicable registrations,
documentation and compliance areas based on their proposed
manufacturing model.
