THE AMIRA GROUP
“Founded in 1915, Amira has evolved into a leading global provider of packaged Indian specialty rice, with sales in over 40 countries today. We generate the majority of our revenue through the sale of Basmati rice, premium long-grain rice grown only in certain regions of the Indian sub-continent, under our flagship Amira brand as well as under other third party brands. Our fourth generation leadership has leveraged nearly a century of experience to take the Amira brand global in recent years. We recently launched new lines of Amira branded products, such as ready-to-eat snacks, to complement our packaged rice offerings, and we also sell bulk commodities to large international and regional trading firms.
We sell our products, primarily in emerging markets, through a broad distribution network. We launched our flagship Amira brand in 2008 and now sell our branded products in more than 25 countries. In emerging markets, our customer channels include traditional retail, which we define as small, privately-owned independent stores, typically at a single location, and modern trade retailers, which we define as large supermarkets typically in a mall or on a commercial street and usually part of a chain of stores. We sell our Amira branded products to Indian retailers such as Bharti Wal-Mart, Big Bazaar, Metro Cash & Carry, Spar, Spencer's Retail, Star Bazaar (Tesco in India) and Total. We also sell in both emerging and developed markets to global retailers such as Carrefour, Costco, Jetro Restaurant Depot, Lulu's and Smart & Final, and through the foodservice channel. Our headquarters are in New Delhi, India, and we also have offices in United Arab Emirates, Malaysia, Singapore, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
In October 2012, Amira Nature Foods Ltd completed an initial public offering. Its common stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange under ticker symbol “ANFI.”
