“I was recently trying to understand Baba Ramdev’s brand Patanjali. I believe that it is one of the finest and unbelievable Indian brand,” Biyani said then.
Announcing the partnership, Baba Ramdev said, “We wanted to partner a ‘Swadeshi’ retail chain. Indigenous products should get more respect. We provide world-class quality products with low price. Hence, customers are benefited from it. We will partner Future Group in manufacturing also wherever possible.”
“Our effort is to promote swadeshi and give a tough fight to the MNCs. We would launch our noodles in market by October 15 and it would be available across India by the end of this month,” he further added.
The two companies are also considering to have production partnership.
