Bikaji Foods International has infused an additional $2.9 million (about ₹25 crore) into its wholly owned subsidiary in the United States, reinforcing the packaged snacks maker’s overseas expansion strategy as it seeks to build a local manufacturing footprint in one of its fastest-growing international markets
The company subscribed to 290,000 shares of Bikaji Foods International USA Corp, taking the subsidiary’s paid-up capital to $4.05 million. The capital infusion does not alter Bikaji’s ownership, with the Indian company continuing to hold 100% of the US business

The latest investment is aimed at setting up a manufacturing plant in the US, a move the company said would help accelerate business growth, expand its market presence and improve customer access. Producing locally is also expected to strengthen Bikaji’s ability to serve the growing demand for Indian snacks in North America while improving supply chain efficiencies
Established in 2023, Bikaji USA is engaged in the trading of packaged food products, including bhujia, namkeen, sweets and frozen foods. The subsidiary has steadily expanded its operations, with turnover rising to $2.62 million in FY26 from $1.77 million in FY25 and $1.1 million in FY24
The investment comes as Indian packaged food companies increasingly deepen their international presence, targeting the expanding Indian diaspora and broader consumer interest in ethnic and ready-to-eat food products. For Bikaji, which has been scaling its global business alongside domestic growth, the US remains a key strategic market
