At the Alco Tech Expo 2022, Sona Machinery, one of the top producers of agri-machinery equipment, displayed its cutting-edge technology items for turnkey rice and grain milling and processing plants. Over 250 people attended the event, which was held on November 18 at the Hotel The Regnant in Nirala Nagar, Lucknow, and discussed the important concerns surrounding the rapidly expanding Indian alcoholic beverage market and the effect of the E20 policy on the establishment of new distilleries.
With a market size estimated at USD 52.5 billion, India is one of the fastest-growing alcoholic beverage industries worldwide. Another industry that is expanding quickly is an ethanol production, where Sona Machinery's products play an important role in ethanol extraction and support the government's plans for the E20 strategy for ethanol production.
Vasu Naren, Managing Director & CEO, Sona Machinery, when speaking on the Emerging Opportunities of Alcobev Manufacturing in Uttar Pradesh, said, “The next times will be the golden years for the industry as the Government is planning E20 for Ethanol Production. According to the E20 Policy, the government will raise the percentage of ethanol in petroleum from 10% to 20% by 2025, which will enhance demand for newly constructed distilleries. The event gave us a great chance to learn about the upcoming trends in India's alcohol and beverage business, which will help us get ready for the always-changing market. It provided the chance to speak with professionals in the field and discuss the difficulties and potential for investment in the field.
The conference included a number of technical and non-technical sessions on the alcoholic beverage industry, grain-based distilleries, and the future prospects of the milling sector. Everyone who attended the presentations and conversations about the shifting industry issues had a collaborative experience.
