Nutrifresh plans Rs 200-225 crore investment in 150-acre South India expansion

The expansion will follow a hub-and-spoke model, with centralised nurseries supplying planting material and integrated distribution centres handling sorting, grading and packaging. The infrastructure will be located close to major consumption centres, while cultivation will take place across individual farms. The model is intended to reduce transportation costs and carbon emissions while ensuring year-round availability of fresh produce.
