Its revenue saw a 36% YoY increase in Q4 compared to the previous year. The company witnessed better growth in rural towns compared to urban markets, especially in the Foods category, driven by expanded reach and market penetration, it added.

The company met its objective of extending its reach to 50,000 rural towns through the addition of distributors, sub-distributors, and an expanded rural sales force. This represents a tenfold increase over three years, up from 5,000 rural towns in FY ’22, the firm said.
