On 5 January 2010, the world’s largest food park
opened 20km from the holy city of Haridwar,
Uttarakhand, India. The Rs.5bn Patanjali Food and
Herbal Park is spread across an area of around 95
acres. It is anticipated that during its operational
phase, the park will provide direct employment for
7,000 people.

The Ministry of Food Processing Industries (MoFPI)

plans to set up a food park in every state of India.
Under India’s 11th five-year plan (2007-2012), the
MoFPI has envisaged 30 food parks, ten of which are
planned to be constructed in the first phase. The
plans are aimed to establish sound manufacturing
and processing units, integrate supply chain
management and bring down wastage of agricultural
produce.
The remaining nine food parks will be constructed in
the states of Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu,
Karnataka, Maharashtra, Assam, West Bengal,
Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh and Punjab.
Patanjali food park project
According to yoga guru and main Patanjali Food and
Herbal Park stakeholder Swami Ramdev, the
primary objective of setting up the park is to provide
a source of income and revenue generation for
farmers by creating a demand for conventional and
non-conventional produce. Initially, only a few food
processing plants will be set up at the food park.
Eventually, 32 processing units will be established.
“The Ministry of Food Processing Industries
plans to set up a food park in every state of
India.”
A special purpose vehicle (SPV) was formed with the
aim of developing basic infrastructure for a
collection of food processing industries in order that
they are developed into an agro-based industrial
hub. The SPV is the key implementing agency of the
project and is responsible for executing it in an
efficient manner. It is also responsible for procuring
land and key infrastructure, obtaining approvals and
clearances, and receiving and utilising financial
assistance. Funds for the project came through
different sources such as the government and private
and individual funding.
Patanjali food and herbal park construction
The construction of the park started in February
2009 and was completed in less than a year.
Technopak Advisors provided project management
services for the project.
Construction work included the building of
warehouses, and research and development centres.
Variable humidity stores and multi-commodity cold
storages, pre-cooling chamber, and a ripening
chamber have also been constructed.
“The construction of the park was completed
in less than a year.”
Patanjali park processing
Equipment installed at the facility includes a steam
sterilisation unit, crate washing, an integrated cold
chain facility, packaging units, boilers, compressors
and an automated washing and grading unit for
multiple commodities. Quality control labs are also
installed.
Food and herbal park products
The plant will produce Arogya atta, juices and other
processed items such as cosmetics and will have
separate units to produce juice, pulp, candies, herbal
products and pickles. Around 150t of products are
anticipated to be produced through 500t of raw
materials.
PPC of Patanjali Food and Herbal Park is based on Hub
and Spoke model. The Spokes are collection and mobile
collection Vehicles which act as consolidation points for
the PFHPPL. The hub for collection and mobile collection
Vehicles are primary processing centers (PPC).
Strong backend linkages with the villages through 6 PPCs
have been planned based on the production, production
potential and seasonality of the different kind of the raw
material. At present it is expected that at least 80% of the
total raw material will be sourced though the backward
linkages of the PFHPPL while rest of the raw material
which is not grown in Uttarakhand and the area of
influence of MFP will be outsourced as per sourcing
economies. Strong backward linkages would be
established by involving farmer groups/traders and
federating them into appropriate entities.
