Amit Kumat, MD of Prataap Snacks, said, “In a backdrop of persistent inflationary trends and sluggish consumer demand, we are pleased to report revenue growth of 9% on a YoY basis. There has been improved demand
in rural markets, even as urban markets remained subdued.
Sales growth has been driven by a combination of expansion into new touchpoints as well as initiatives to optimise sales efforts at existing touchpoints and territories through enhanced efficiencies. Additionally, we formally commenced exports in Q3 with the shipment of initial batches.
The third quarter witnessed a continued increase in raw material prices, as anticipated, particularly for key ingredients such as palm oil and potato. Apart from the price rise, the reinstatement of import duties on crude and refined palm oil has contributed to the sharp increase in raw material costs in the current quarter.”
