processing units for both organized and unorganized sectors. This fragmentation is
one of the most specific reasons why food sector is thriving in India.

Press Release Body = Food processing, one of the key businesses in India, is a
highly fragmented industry. In India, vegetable and fruit processing is almost
uniformly divided between unorganized and organized sectors. Unorganized sector,
which includes a number of traditional and modern food units, takes over a majority
of market share in Indian food processing market as compared to the organized sector
that holds a share of 48 %.

While products such as pulp and juice concentrate are primarily produced by the
organized sector, unorganized sector has a strong foothold in traditional areas
including items such as pickles, squashes and sauces. In this, pickles form
strongest category by size. In meat-processing sector, the country has nine modern
abattoirs, 3,600 slaughterhouses and 171 meat-processing units approved under Meat
Products Order.
