India: Reliance Consumer Products to set up bottling plant in Bihar

Reliance Consumer Products, the FMCG arm of Indian retail major Reliance Retail Ventures, has announced plans to invest 1,000 crore INR ($117 million ) to set up a new bottling plant in Begusarai, in India’s Bihar state.

The upcoming facility, covering 35 acres and developed by Campa Cola manufacturer and distributor EPIC Agro Product Ltd, is expected to serve as a central node for expanding bottling and logistics capabilities in the region.

It follows the recent opening of a comparable bottling facility in Guwahati, Assam, inaugurated in February this year.

Reliance entered the drinks industry in 2022 with its acquisition of Campa Cola, and the brand now offers cola, orange, lemon, and energy drinks. RCPL has also introduced Raskik, a fruity rehydration beverage, as well as Spinner, aimed at active lifestyles.
