The summit was aimed at exploring and deliberating the latest advancements in food processing technologies, emphasising their transformative impact on the sector, it added.
Mohit Singla, Chairman of TPCI, said, "The idea behind this conference was to disseminate the message about connecting the visitors and attendees for the ensuing Indusfood Show to be held in January 2027 in Delhi/ Noida".
Northeast India has a strong natural advantage in horticulture, with significant production of pineapple, orange, banana, jackfruit, kiwi, passion fruit, and tomato.
"Yet, much of this produce continues to be sold in raw form, limiting value realisation and increasing post-harvest losses," it said, adding that these products hold strong premium value in domestic and global markets, yet much of the produce is still sold raw with limited value addition.
