The Indian manufacturer exports lipid-based supplements and nut butters to over 49 countries, with a new Haryana facility set to boost daily output to 100 metric tonnes.

By The India Decade

Nuflower Foods & Nutrition has reported revenues of approximately ₹187 crore for FY26, marking a 37 per cent year-on-year growth on the back of expanding global demand for therapeutic food and commercial nut spreads. More than 92 per cent of the company's revenue is generated through exports to over 49 countries.

To meet rising international demand, the company is preparing to commission a new manufacturing facility at Sector 7 of the Reliance Model Economic Township in Jhajjar district, Haryana. The plant will add 40 metric tonnes a day to its existing 60-tonne daily capacity, taking total production output to between 90 and 100 metric tonnes.

Operations across humanitarian aid and commercial retail

Nuflower began operations in 2017, focusing on lipid-based nutrient supplements (LNS) such as ready-to-use therapeutic food (RUTF) for severe acute malnutrition and ready-to-use supplementary food (RUSF) for moderate acute malnutrition. Made from peanut butter, milk powder, vegetable oil, and targeted vitamin fortification, these high-calorie pouches are supplied to international relief agencies.

The company has since expanded into contract manufacturing and private-label nut butters for international supermarket chains, alongside launching its own domestic high-protein snack line, GoEarnest.

India's raw material advantage and global scale

Company founder Akshat Khandelwal noted that India provides an ideal base for manufacturing complex nutrition products because of its agricultural wealth and technical workforce. The country offers abundant domestic supplies of groundnuts, milk, and oil, coupled with a deep talent pool in food and pharmaceutical engineering.

While humanitarian nutrition yields higher margins due to strict manufacturing and quality controls, commercial nut butter contract manufacturing provides consistent high-volume growth. The company sources key raw materials, including high-grade groundnuts, directly from Gujarat.

Scaling up production requires managing raw material logistics, securing power, and organizing workforce shifts for 24-hour factory operations. To navigate fluctuations in raw material pricing and shipping costs, Nuflower has adjusted long-term contracts with global buyers to protect operational sustainability across its supply chain as it scales up its commercial footprint.
