"This facility will be operational over the next few years and is set to become an export hub for P&G globally, as it will help P&G India in serving consumers across the globe," it said.
Besides, this will also help create hundreds of direct and indirect jobs, thereby offering a significant boost to the local economy, it added.
The investment was announced by P&G India CEO LV Vaidyanathan in a meeting with Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel.
"The facility builds on top of P&G India’s existing manufacturing footprint of 8 plants across the country and expands the existing presence in Gujarat," the statement said.
