FOOD Empire will be deepening its roots in South-east Asia and Central Asia, as the instant-coffee maker looks to brew up the next wave of growth.
The mainboard-listed company intends to ramp up its investments in these regions, banking on their relative economic stability and burgeoning consumer markets.
“The geopolitics and a lot of currency volatility (in Europe) was primarily a reason why we looked to Asia, because this region has been more stable for us,” chief executive officer Sudeep Nair told The Business Times.
