Mysuru-based Supreem has now made its maiden entry into super foods with 19 products and 38 more by the year end. The company, which has a strong base in Mysuru in pharmaceuticals has now diversified to manufacture healthy superfoods assessing the promising marketing opportunity.
These products are made from natural ingredients to boost healthy living with no side effects. The range, which includes 19 products available across ecommerce platforms and modern retail chains, will be expanded to a total of 50 by the end of this financial year. "We have a plan in place to increase it to over 100 products by the end of next financial year.

Supreem Pharmaceuticals achieved a turnover of Rs. 68 crore last financial year. The growth CAGR has been over 20% turnover & profitability over the last 5 years.
