The overall demand of animal protein is also increasing in the region due to rapid economic growth of India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Nepal. To address the rapid growth in the demand of animal protein coupled with the objective of better customer service we decided to invest in the additional capacity of our existing Gummudipundi plant in Chennai. \u201cKemin is always aggressively pursuing expansions to cater customers\u2019 needs regionally to provide high-quality products and solutions.
