Company Introduction

Incorporated in 1994, Karuturi Global is today the largest producer of cut roses in the world, with are area of over 239 hectares under Greenhouse cultivation and an annual production capacity of around 555 million stems.

An integrated production model encompassing in house plantation, cultivation and distribution capabilities coupled with a series of green initiatives make us one of the lowest cost producer of cut roses in the world. Almost our entire produce is exported to high value markets such as Holland, Germany, United Kingdom, Italy, Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Bahrain, Muscat, Dubai, Australia, Japan, New Zealand, Brunei and North America, with a small portion sold in India.

Having established our strong presence in Floriculture, we now aim to broad base our portfolio into a larger Agri-produce basket. The acquisition of large tracts of land in Ethiopia has set the stage for us to evolve into an end-to-end Agri focused company.

Equipped with a robust and de-risked business model, Karuturi Globals other fast growing business realms are food processing, floriculture retail including a flower auction portal and information technology.

We, Karuturi Foods Pvt.

Encouraged by the promising response to our food processing business, we have initiated steps to take up bottling and exports of other vegetables such as Jalapenos, Green Bell Peppers, Baby Corn and other vegetables.
