Godrej Consumer plans insecticides unit in Seemandhra: PTI

Godrej Consumer Products Ltd (GCPL) may consider setting up a new plant in Seemandhra provided the new state government offers incentives to do so, according to a PTI report. The company is planning to manufacture soaps and insecticides at the proposed new plant.
Meanwhile, Godrej Consumer Products will continue its expansion program for its existing capacity of plants in North East and Jammu to meet growing demand for its products.
 
“If I look at new locations, I would continue expanding in brown field locations at Jammu and North East and in terms of green field locations, the location which we are looking at, depending on the kind of benefits, is Seemandhra,” Vivek Gambhir, Managing Director, Godrej Consumer Products, told PTI.
 
He added, “We have substantially expanded our capacity at our Jammu Plant and North-East because of the kind of the excise benefits, we get from those areas. We are also awaiting to see what kind of benefits the government gives in Seemandhara.”
