How durable is the business?
Freeze-dried coffee was not yet a revenue stream in Q3 FY26, but it became a major planned growth engine. The company was preparing a 5,500-metric-ton-per-year facility, expected to begin commercial production in FY27. Management expects realization to be about 30%–40% above spray-dried coffee and first-year utilization of roughly 65%–70%. (2 new)
“By next FY '27, we should be in a position to commence commercial production of this freeze-dried coffee, which is a super-premium product.”
