BENGALURU, 31 May 2025: In a significant consolidation move within India’s poultry industry, the Indian Poultry Alliance (IPA), a subsidiary of the Allana Group, has acquired Kwality Animal Feeds Pvt. Ltd. for INR 300 crore.
Headquartered in Belgaum, Kwality is a leading integrated poultry company with over four decades of operational experience.
As part of the deal, IPA will invest an additional INR 200 crore into Kwality for capacity expansion, reinforcing its growth strategy in India's fast-growing poultry and animal nutrition sectors.
Founded in 1983, Kwality Animal Feeds operates across the entire poultry value chain — from feed mills and soya processing to breeding farms, hatcheries, broiler integration, and value-added poultry products. It holds a strong market presence in Western and Southern India, along with long-standing partnerships with food service providers and QSRs.
“This acquisition further strengthens our poultry value chain, enhancing efficiency, sustainability, and market reach,” said Moiz Chunawalla, Managing Director of IPA. “We are investing in advanced technologies, automation, and precision breeding to drive productivity while minimizing environmental impact.”
Chunawalla also outlined IPA’s broader expansion roadmap. “We plan to invest INR 2,000 crore over the next three years, scale up to seven manufacturing units, strengthen cold chain logistics, and deepen presence in key metro markets. Our strategy includes three more acquisitions this year and a strong export focus.”
Sanjeev Despande and Ajit Lokur, Directors and Co-Founders of Kwality, said: “Joining forces with IPA brings new opportunities. Our shared vision for quality poultry nutrition will now be supported by Allana’s world-class infrastructure and network.”
The acquisition comes amid rising consumer demand for high-protein diets and ready-to-cook poultry products. With this strategic integration, IPA solidifies its leadership position in India’s growing animal protein industry. The transition process is already underway, with assurances of continuity for employees, customers, and suppliers, according to the company.
