Britannia Industries is likely to enter different segments of food and beverages industry as it plans aggressive moves beyond its mainstay biscuits business. The company has been trying to put its brand appeal to greater use by foraying into dairy, baked snacks and ready-to-cook breakfast segments. In the coming days, Britannia will launch gourmet cheese, adding a new product to its dairy business, which accounts for about 5% of its sales.
The company came up with Treat Choco Decker, a product that straddles both the biscuit and chocolate domains, in March last year while in January, it launched its 'Healthy Start' range of ready-to-cook breakfast foods. It has tiptoed into specialty breads and retail with the acquisition of Daily Bread in 2009, which remains confined largely to Bangalore, Hyderabad and Goa. Its 'Healthy Start' range is still being piloted in Mumbai while baked snack Time Pass is being tested in Bangalore.
