CEO MESSAGE
MR. AKSHAY VERMA
As ADIGRO Group embarks on its new professional journey within the Indian agrochemical market, the potential for establishing a strong brand presence has never been more evident. This burgeoning market is further supported by Indian Government initiatives that encourage the establishment of agri-retail shops and dealers, creating a robust framework for growth and innovation. With these key factors converging, ADIGRO is poised not only to make a substantial impact in the sector but also to contribute meaningfully to the agricultural landscape of India, paving the way for a brighter future in agrochemicals.
As ADIGRO continues to expand its reach, it aims to foster partnerships with local farmers, dealers, and cooperatives, ensuring that its products are accessible and beneficial to those who need them most.
My best wishes to the entire team ADIGRO and all stakeholders, including our beloved farmers, the backbone of the Indian economy.
DIRECTORS’S MESSAGE
MR. AJAY Kumar
I look forward to starting my new professional journey with ADIGRO Group in a new role and responsibility to establish ADIGRO as a brand in the Indian agrochemicals market. Initially, we will start our sales and marketing activities in the northern and eastern states of the country, an existing market for pesticides worth more than 200 billion.
This is a unique opportunity for us to leverage our innovative products and sustainable practices to meet growing farmer demand. In the launch year, our focus is not on gaining market share, but on building a strong team, working with good distribution partners, and laying a solid foundation for ADIGRO’s business in the years to come. In FY 25-26, we offer more than 30 products in the areas of insecticides, fungicides, herbicides, and PGR/micronutrients that help farmers to increase their productivity and income. The product range will continue to expand in the coming years.
I request the support of our local sales team and our valued distributors in the northern and eastern states for a successful launch of ADIGRO. I wish you all the best.
