1 I WOULD LIKE TO BEGIN BY ASKING YOU ABOUT STONEFIELD FLAVOURS? COULD YOU TELL US A BIT ABOUT THE COMPANY?

Stonefield was formed by a group of seasoned food industry professionals who came together because of our passion for taste. Initially, we wanted to work as the flavour partner for tier II companies. We realized there was a gap in this space, with enormous demand for quality ingredients and flavours at affordable prices. Our initial target audience was bakery end users. Today, we are one of the fastest-growing flavour companies of the country, catering to most end-user segments including Bakery, Dairy, Beverage, Confectionery, Savoury etc and serving almost all the top FMCG companies in India and in other countries as well. We are selling in Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, MiddleEast and Africa.

I would say that we have grown into a company that works as the extended arm for food and beverage companies to co-create innovative flavours and taste solutions, helping them to serve delightful tastes, everytime.

2 WHAT IS TRULY VEGETARIAN DAIRY FLAVOURS?

DairyONE is an enzyme-modified dairy flavour, 100% vegetarian from cow rearing to final produce. It is made using different enzymes and cultures in natural dairy substrates as per EDMI profile. Stonefield Flavours are the first in India to manufacture this product.
