The Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), a trade association and advocacy group, welcomed the scheme terming it a game-changer for the food processing industry. “The Production Linked Incentive Scheme for Food Processing Industry will enable the creation of modern infrastructure with efficient supply chain management from farm gate to retail. This will create an enabling ecosystem for aggregation, collaboration and access to export markets,” Suresh Narayanan, Chairman, CII National Committee on Food Processing Industries said.</span></p><p><span style="color: #000000;">The government has been very supportive of the food processing industry, which was badly hit by the pandemic. Earlier, the government announced the ODOP scheme for the sector under which one product for each district across the country will be identified and promoted. ODOP is central to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s call of Vocal for Local. This scheme will act as a complement to the ODOP scheme, helping to boost the food processing industry in India.</span></p></div>
