OUR STORY SO FAR:

 Over the course of eight decades, a lot has changed about us. We have relocated,
undergone expansion, developed new product lines & added segments, opened retail
chains & stores across India and embraced new markets overseas. One thing hasn’t
changed - we’re still a tight-knit family business, committed to serving the most
authentic taste of India through our products.
 Our origins can be traced back to a small namkeen shop in Bikaner founded by Ganga
Bishan Agarwal (Haldiram Ji). This modest shop quickly gained popularity and scaled
up to meet a booming demand for its unique-tasting bhujia. Building on this legacy,
his grandson, our pioneer Mr. Shiv Kishan Agrawal steered the business towards the
heights it has tasted today.
 Determined to take bhujia beyond the boundaries of Bikaner, he shifted base to
Nagpur in 1970. We opened our first full-production unit to introduce a delectable
variety of savouries, sweets and beverages to the market. The success of this venture
led us to expand and evolve as a brand, that is an integral part of every Indian
household.
 From our formative years, he instilled the value of keeping the tradition and quality
intact, even as we matured as a company. All our products maintain a consistent sense
of simplicity. The ingredients and recipes were picked to accentuate these ideas and
are followed to this date. We promise that all our products are natural, wholesome and
have a homemade feel to them.
 Although, Haldiram’s is about more than just food. By creating a strong sense of
community and supporting our associates, we continue to feel like a true family
business. We carry these values with us as we operate together to serve generations of
happy connoisseurs across the globe and continue to be the nation’s beloved snack-
food company.
 As the age old saying goes, “The way to one’s heart courses through their
stomach”. We want to leave no stone unturned to win your hearts.

OUR PROCESS

 We take massive pride in associating ourselves with supply chains that uphold the
same beliefs as we do: only the finest quality makes the cut.
We have won the trust of millions of families in and out of India with our relentless
attention to quality and our constant belief in making our processes better.
Through the stages of production, from farm to your packet, we are hands-on about
maintaining the taste and high-quality of our products. At the core of our business, we
value quality above everything else, which translates into products that are good to the
last crumb.
 It starts as the finest raw ingredients are sourced ethically via fair trade from local
farms and trusted vendors across the country. These ingredients are prepped to be
minimally processed and combined together according to our traditional recipes.
Once inside a Haldiram’s unit, they are blended with freshly ground spices,
seasonings and other ingredients as per the recipes, by the most advanced
machineries. Our expert personnel carefully and hygienically handle them to avoid
any dips in the high standard we maintain.
 These tasty snacks and sweets are now thoroughly checked through elaborate tests
before being transferred for further processing. With several standard checks to pass,
you can be ensured your pack of Haldiram’s is truly the finest quality. 

 Having passed all our tests, your snacks and sweets are on their way to being
packaged, only to be delivered by our trusted distribution network to the stores closest
to you. 
We also utilize our state-of-the-art infrastructure for continuous research and
development; we experiment with recipes and formulations to refine flavours and
improve the nutritional content of all our products.

OUR WORKFORCE 

 By ensuring our associates are happy, healthy and treated fairly with respect, we
foster a family and not just a business. Our focus is on creating a work environment in
which our employees are motivated to learn and grow. They are encouraged to attend
training programs on effective teamwork and personal development regularly.
 Safety is fundamental to our company’s purpose and values. Leading with safety —
both the safety of our employees at the workplace and the food they make — is one of
the key operating principles that guide our work. Proper sanitation is a foundation of
food safety; we train our employees to maintain the quality standards that we hold at
Haldiram’s. We employ a detailed protocol to ensure the protection and safety of all
our personnel during operations. Several assessment sessions are also conducted to
analyze the risk of accidents, injury, and exposure to health hazards at our workplace.
Continuous efforts have been made to streamline our operations and enforce safety at
all levels of our supply chain.

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

 Our approach to business extends well beyond the sales of our products. We believe
that being successful in the marketplace and being a sustainable business, go hand in
hand. To achieve transparency, we collaborate with our associates and create shared
value for the consumers, stakeholders and our communities. We leverage our
entrepreneurial heritage and dedication to social welfare to make a beneficial impact
on our surroundings.
 Our goal is to preserve the resources and relationships upon which our business
depends, by promoting environmentally and socially responsible practices across our
value chain. The prime areas of focus involve the stewardship of natural resources,
enforcing transparency and ethical standards at our workplace and benefit our
community.
