Odisha: Tata's Rs 100 Crore Tea Packaging Unit At Gopalpur Industrial Park To Commence Commercial Production Soon

The Tata Consumer Products Limited’s Rs 100 crore tea packaging unit situated in the Gopalpur Industrial Park in Odisha will kick off its commercial production soon.

The unit spans across 16 acres and is based at the Tata Steel Special Economic Zone. It has an annual production capacity of 60 million kgs and is operated by the Tata Consumer Products’ associate company Amalgamated Plantations Pvt Ltd (APPL).

APPL is India’s second-largest tea producer and also one of Tata Consumer Products’ leading contract packers for their fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) business. As of now, it operates three tea packing factories, two of which are based in Assam and the other one in West Bengal, The Economic Times reports.

The Gopalpur Industrial Park has gradually developed into a preferred investment destination due to its multi-modal logistics connectivity, plug and play infrastructure and rather convenient accessibility from Bhubaneshwar.

Moreover, factors such as ready environmental clearance and clear land title have also attracted several businesses to the industrial park.

The Anadrone Systems Private Limited’s defence manufacturing unit and chrome-based industries by the East Coast Overseas Private Limited and Odimet Resources Private Limited are some of the major businesses to have set up base at the Gopalpur park.
