Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the expanded French fries plant operated by Banas Dairy in Gujarat today. The ceremony marked a significant upgrade to the facility, which now has a production capacity of five tonnes per hour.
The expansion follows Banas Dairy’s strategy to diversify its product range beyond dairy. By converting locally grown potatoes into French fries, the company aims to tap into the growing demand for processed snack foods.
The new capacity is expected to boost the plant’s output, providing a steady supply to regional distributors and potentially creating additional employment opportunities in the area.
Officials highlighted that the upgrade aligns with broader efforts to strengthen food processing infrastructure in Gujarat, supporting both farmers and the local economy.
