At the recently concluded Fi India 2024 in Bengaluru, APD Foods, a specialty ingredient manufacturer, highlighted its extensive product portfolio and its infrastructure in Gujarat. APD Foods specializes in producing and sourcing various conventional and organic botanical herbs and spices, natural gums, spray-dried powders, herbal tea-cut ingredients, and other specialty food and chemical ingredients. The event allowed the company to highlight its expertise and commitment to quality in the food and nutraceutical industries.
During an interaction with IndiFoodBev, Purvik Shah, director of APD Foods, stressed the importance of quality in both the sourcing and manufacturing processes for food ingredients.
“Quality can never be compromised for commercial benefits. It can make or break a food manufacturing company. At APD Foods, we implement testing methods to deliver the safest and highest quality products to our customers,” Shah said. He emphasized that, beyond quality, the company prioritizes consistency, standardization, continuous improvement, and innovation throughout its manufacturing process. “Quality, safety, and efficiency are the key drivers, and each element plays a vital role in ensuring the sustainability of the business,” Shah added.
APD Foods has invested significantly in its infrastructure, which is equipped with advanced machinery such as spice grinding systems, metal detectors, spray drying plants, ETO sterilization machines, and laboratory equipment for stringent quality control. According to Shah, the well-planned infrastructure allows the company to maintain high standards in its production processes while ensuring food safety and consistency across its product lines.
The company’s product portfolio targets a wide range of industries, including seasoning and savors, flavor and fragrance, food and beverage, and the nutraceutical sector. Shah said APD Foods is dedicated to delivering the finest quality products without compromising on food safety. “Our efforts are directed towards providing our clients with superior products that meet the highest standards of safety and quality,” he said.
Shah spoke about the company’s motto for participating in Fi India 2024. “As a global exhibition, Fi India brings a diverse group of interested customers to our stall. Participating in this exhibition not only gave us exposure but also the opportunity to connect with potential future clients of APD Foods,” he explained. The event provided a platform for APD Foods to network with key players in the industry, explore emerging trends, and showcase its capabilities to a global audience.
