Haifa Group Launches its 18th International Subsidiary in India

Date

We are thrilled to announce the official opening of our subsidiary in India. This step intends to deepen our activity in the Indian market, which is considered one of the most important in the world, accounting for the huge population, natural resources, and the growing interest in advanced agriculture practices.

Managed by Mr. Sudhakar Maddila, the new company will enable Haifa Group to promote plant nutrition solutions among Indian farmers through customization to specific needs and local preferences. This move reflects our commitment to expand our presence in key markets and offer innovative specialty fertilizers and crop nutrition solutions tailored to local challenges. 

The agricultural industry in India, known to be among the largest globally, faces growing demands for higher yields and quality food production within the constraints of limited resource availability. Haifa India will focus on making Haifa’s extensive range of products and solutions more accessible, promoting better nutrient use efficiency to enhance crop production and increase farmers' incomes.

Haifa Group’s solutions, based on highly effective water-soluble fertilizers, are designed to improve yields in various crops, including fruits, vegetables, and field crops. These solutions also offer significant environmental benefits, such as reducing pollution caused by traditional fertilizer applications, making them a preferred choice for countries facing sustainability challenges.

Motti Levin, CEO of Haifa Group: “India, the world’s most populous country, faces significant challenges in agriculture, including imbalanced fertilizer usage, increased water scarcity, rising production costs, and deteriorating soil health. Establishing a subsidiary allows us to improve the availability of our solutions in this market while optimally adapting them to local challenges. This step will strengthen our position as a key player in promoting global food security.”

Mr. Sudhakar Maddila, Managing Director of Haifa India: “Our presence in India will enable us to respond better and faster to farmers, with an emphasis on innovative plant nutrition solutions based on Haifa Group’s extensive knowledge, combined with familiarity with local crop production practices and requirements. Our goal is to merge global knowledge with unique local needs.”

Natan Feldman, VP of Marketing, Business Development, and Innovation of Haifa Group: “Establishing the company in India is part of our commitment to Indian agriculture and a broader growth strategy to expand the accessibility of precision plant nutrition solutions to strategic markets worldwide. Our solutions support sustainable agriculture, reduce environmental impacts, and improve production efficiency, making them an excellent fit for the complex and dynamic market in India.”

Haifa India expands the global presence of Haifa Group, now owning 18 subsidiaries worldwide and operating in more than 100 countries. India now joins other major markets in Asia where Haifa operates through regional hubs, including China and Thailand. These hubs, along with the new one in India, strengthen our robust presence across Southeast Asia, showcasing our commitment to fostering modern agriculture across the continent. 

This strategic positioning underscores Haifa’s ability to adapt to regional needs and highlights the longstanding expertise and reach that support its leadership in plant nutrition solutions.
