Britannia Industries Share Price

Britannia Industries Limited, formerly known as Britannia Biscuit Company Limited, is one of the largest players in the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sector. The company specialises in biscuits, breads, snacks and dairy products. A part of the Wadia Group, the company was founded in 1892 when a group of Kolkata-based entrepreneurs started a biscuit-making company.

By 1921, it became the first company in the biscuit industry to install specialised foreign ovens. Later, it supplied 'service biscuits' to soldiers during World War II. Expanding its footprint, Britannia established a new factory in Mumbai in 1924 and formed a strategic partnership with Peek Frean & Company Limited, a big biscuit manufacturer from the United Kingdom. Over the years, the company faced several transformations, and in 1979, it was renamed as Britannia Industries Limited. The company introduced the iconic 'Britannia Tiger' biscuit in 1993 for children. It ventured into the dairy products segment in 1997.

Currently, Britannia has become a household name across India. The market capitalisation of Britannia Industries Limited stood at ₹1.26 crore as of December 26, 2023. Britannia share price has gained more than 44% in the last three years.
