Prime Minister Narendra Modi today inaugurated World Food India 2025 at Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi on 25 Sept, 2025. The event, organized by the Ministry of Food Processing Industries, is one of the world’s largest platforms dedicated to the food and agriculture sector. It brings together global leaders, industry experts, food companies, and policymakers under one roof. The three-day event aims to highlight India’s achievements in food production and processing while attracting fresh investments to boost the economy.
Showcasing Food Innovation and Sustainability
The exhibition features new technologies, innovative food products, and sustainable solutions for the industry. Startups, farmers’ groups, and multinational companies are showcasing their strengths in food processing, millet-based products, organic foods, and value-added chains. Special sessions and seminars have been planned on subjects like food security, nutrition, global trade, and new food packaging technologies. A major highlight of this year’s edition is India’s focus on promoting “Shree Anna” (millets) to the world, building on its reputation as the global leader in millet production.
Benefits for Farmers and Economy
World Food India 2025 is expected to open new opportunities for farmers, traders, and entrepreneurs. By creating direct links between global buyers and Indian producers, the summit will help ensure better incomes for farmers while reducing crop wastage. The government’s vision of “Make in India” and “Atmanirbhar Bharat” remains central to the event, encouraging more food processing units and increasing exports. With India already ranking among the largest producers of fruits, vegetables, dairy, and grains, industry experts believe this platform will boost the country’s presence in the global food supply chain.
