Business operations
LT Foods specialises in basmati rice sold under brands like Daawat, Heritage, Orange, Devaaya, Gold Seal Indus Valley, 817 Elephant and Kari Kari. Its product range includes brown, white, steamed, parboiled and organic rice. With an extensive distributor network, the company caters to markets in India and globally, including US, Canada, UK, the European Union, Middle East and Africa.
