Reliance Industries Unveils Plans for Advanced Manufacturing and Export Platforms

Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) is building an advanced manufacturing platform and an export platform to strengthen its consumer products ecosystem and expand its global footprint, Chairman and MD Mukesh Ambani said on Friday. “Reliance Retail is now poised for another great leap forward. Between Reliance Retail and Reliance Consumer Products Ltd (RCPL), we will add two powerful growth-boosting platforms - an Advanced Manufacturing Platform and an Exports platform,” he said at the 49th AGM of Reliance Industries. Ambani said that they are building a manufacturing platform extending from beverages and daily essentials to one of the most unorganised categories – fresh fruits and vegetables. He added that they are also building a future-ready garment manufacturing ecosystem, which will deliver better-quality garments to customers at the most competitive cost. “We have created supplier partnerships in 21 pan-India clusters, where these garments will be manufactured. We will also do the same for affordable electronics – from smart eyewear to televisions, smartphones, and connected wearables – with a continued focus on superior customer service,” he said. Ambani stated that the exports platform is a logical extension of the manufacturing platform in Retail.
