ITC’s Packaging and Printing business includes carton board, flexible and tobacco packaging. As India’s leading company, ITC’s business is diversified into FMCG, Hotels, Packaging, Paperboards & Specialty Papers and Agri-Business.

According to local reports, the Chief Minister, while announcing the projects, said: “Today, Bhumi Pujan [foundation laying ceremony] has been done for two factories in Badiyakhedi [in Sehore district]. An investment of about ₹1,500 crores will happen here, so our 5,000 children will get employment.”

Chouhan further mentioned that the state government is looking forward to bringing in investments and providing ample opportunities to farmers and children in the second-largest state of India by area. 

“There are limitations to farming. Our children should get permanent jobs, which is why there should be avenues other than farming,” he said.

ITC emphasized that the facility at Sehore is poised to add value to the state’s manufacturing sector and support inclusive agri-value chains. ITC “believes that the food processing sector, being at the intersection of agriculture, industry and services, can make a multi-dimensional contribution to the state’s economy by enhancing the competitiveness of the food value chain.”
