To strengthen its foothold in the agriculture sector, Sarveshwar Foods twinned with a number of Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs). This partnership is intended to assist farmers in accessing better financing, especially working capital and building resources.

Sarveshwar Foods will perform a mediator role by linking up these farmers with the financial related companies even though the actual financing will be made by the NBFCs to the farmers with no risk exposure for the company itself. In a notification to the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), the company noted that this project would empower farmers with credit resources necessary for the improvement of agricultural facilities, for example, irrigation and storage units. This will help development in agricultural output and minimize the losses incurred after harvesting, this means strengthening the agricultural supply chain.

Recently, the Profit After Tax (PAT) for the company increased in Q1 FY25 by 6% year on year to reach a stand at Rs 3.09 crore from Rs 2.90 crore in the same quarter of FY 24. The company had redemption bagged operational revenue growth of 24% reaching Rs 233.05 crore up from 187.68 crore in the first quarter of FY 24. EBITDA increased, up 20 per cent, which accounted to Rs 13.31 crore in Q1 FY25, compared to Q1 FY24's Rs 11.10 crore.

Moreover, establishing further the presence of this rapidly expanding business, its wholly owned subsidiary, Sarveshwar Foods, won a noteworthy new export order worth about $6 million during the quarterly period, proving its presence in the foreign market. This accomplishment demonstrates the first reason, which is the company's effort to cater to the international market while meeting the standards required by the clients.

Sarveshwar Foods for over130 years has been involved in rice growing, processing and marketing in the state of Jammu & Kashmir. The company earns revenues from both basmati and non-basmati rice varieties that are processed for the local and export markets. The company's farms sustained by Himalaya's snow melt as well as organic manure reinforce the company systems of farming as quite uncommon.

Similarly, the focus on organic and conscious living is apparent in Sarveshwar Foods' Nimbark brand which supports the brand 'SATVIK' lifestyle which focuses on organic products and awareness. Additionally, the company hatched yet another record as the first private food processing company in the union territory of Jammu & Kashmir to get an enlistment in the national stock exchange and Bombay Stock Exchange.
