Our production capacity will enhance by approx. 3 times which gives us the scope to expand to the vast Indian market and global market.

At present 90 percent of our business is in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana and a very minimal portion in Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. From the upcoming facility we will be able to cater to the entire South India and also to export markets. Having opened our new warehouse in Kesarpalli, near Vijayawada NH-16, which enables us to cater to Chennai-Calcutta and Orissa markets. Having in house warehouses and logistic facilities, we do have an advantage of not relying on any other cold chain transporter as cold chain being very important part of our complete operations. We have been the pioneer in Secondary distribution, being the only company having local cold chain fleet and delivers the frozen product in temperature controlled vehicles.

PREFERENTIAL ISSUE OF EQUITY SHARES AND WARRANTS:

During the period under review, in order to scale up our operations we have introduced new products in the line of frozen foods. However, owing to various limitations, we are not able to cater to the demands of the customers. The management felt that it is high time to expand its processing capacity and create a state of the art facility which can cater to larger markets across the country. In this regard, we are aggressively working on the expansion project, towards which a lot of preliminary work has been completed. At this stage, it needs the crucial financial support. In this regard your company has issued & allotted 7,50,000 equity shares on preferential basis and 5,00,000 convertible warrants to non-promoters and promoters of the company respectively. The said securities were issued at a price of Rs.80 per share / warrant.

The warrants will be converted into equity shares within 18 months from the date of allotment. The equity shares to be allotted upon exercise of warrants shall rank pari passu in all respects including as to dividend, with the existing Equity Shares of Face Value of Rs.10/- each of the Company.

This has helped the Company reduce its dependence on borrowed funds and in turn reduce its debt burden. With the ease of availability of funds at its disposal, your management hopes the Company will be able to overcome the funding obstacles and will achieve its targets.
