Guess the company #2 - The multi decade journey of compounding

I think I got this right.

It is ITC. :wink::wink:

Britannia is the company

Hatsun agro products ltd.

Tata consumers products

Tata Consumer Products Ltd.

“Marico Limited.”

Marico Limited went public in 1996.
It operates in consumer products and has seven brands, like Parachute coconut oil and Saffola cooking oil, which are consumed daily.

Their brand Saffola has been gaining popularity in tier 1 cities recently, but they were pioneers in taking it to tier 2 and rural areas.
In the 2000s, Marico acquired a company named “Revive,” which is associated with the popular saree “Revival” from South India.

marico 1996 as 7 brands in it

Mostly Hatsun Agro Product as @onkar & @Malick_Nak has told.

The company went public 26 years after it’s incorporation and has been listed since the 90s

Company started in 1970s, incorporated in 1986 (according to company database), went public in 1996.

It has 7 brands under it primarily operating in consumer products.

Company has 8 brands (according to company website) Arun, Arokya, Hatsun, HAP daily, ibaco, Santosa, Hanobar Chocolates and Havia Chocolates.

Their products include something you consume daily and a product that also is closely related to Italy.

Milk and there product ibaco uses italian tech for chocolate making.

One of their brand is getting popular in tier 1 cities now but they were the pioneers in taking it in tier 2 and rural areas.

Arokya milk/Arun Ice cream both could be correct? Was popular in Chennai now being taken to tier-2 cities and rural areas.

Their first factory was in a city that has a monopoly in tapioca production.

Salem, Tamil Nadu

In 2000s they acquired a company whose name has a popular saree from south.

Kanchipuram Dairy (Kanchipuram silks is quite popular saree)

Promoters hold 73% of this company and FIIs hold 3%.

Exactly matches the criteria. Promoter holds 73% and FIIs hold 2.9% stake :slight_smile:

@ValueInvestor0 super! You got it right! :100:

The Italy connection is with Oyalo ( 100% vegetarian ready to eat pizza).

@Malick_Nak @onkar you guessed it right as well!

Watch out for a DM with your surprise!
