Tapping towards innovation

Speaking about the company and its focus on R&D, Vikram Agarwal, managing director of Greendot Health Foods, shares, "Our manufacturing unit boasts of an expert R&D Lab for product innovation and development. A team of well-qualified and experienced nutritionists and quality control experts ensure that food safety standards are made and nothing but the best reaches the table of our patrons."

Keeping up with trends

According to Agarwal, the post-pandemic snacking industry has boomed as people have developed a habit of munching at home. "They have shifted from proper meals to healthy snacking in short intervals. New products are launched with clean labels in sustainable and pocket-friendly packaging. Consumers now want to be aware of what they are consuming. Packaging plays a crucial role. It should be convenient, eco-friendly, and innovative."

"With the rise in digital usage, our everyday life starts with our phones and ends on it too. Everything has become so much easier after eCommerce sites, where customers can keep in touch with the brand and explore and shop for their favorite products without leaving their houses. Cornitos also launched their eCommerce website in 2020, which helped us to build a strong relationship with our customers and provide them with a wide range of products https://shop.cornitos.in/."
