Team Prime Fresh continued to focus on Consolidation, Operational efficiency, building better processes & Increasing Utilization from the existing Supply Chain ecosystem. The renewed efforts on Traditional Channels, General Trade and Large Ticket/Bulk Business orders paid pretty well during the quarter backed by superior cost control efforts. As a result of our sustained diversification efforts, the F&V services business emerged as a key catalyst during this quarter.
This performance was achieved despite a volatile demand environment and seasonal variations in key commodities. The improvement was driven by our continued focus on cost optimization, a better product mix, and significantly higher volumes.
Our continued focus on strengthening backward integration and enhancing supply-chain precision delivered encouraging results, even in the face of highly unfavourable climatic challenges. Overall capacity utilisation improved during the quarter, supported by agile forecasting of short-term demand and supply variation, Throughput across our major procurement clusters remained robust. These operational efficiencies, combined with disciplined cost management, helped us maintain margin resilience.
During 9MFY26, we made significant progress in advancing to our long-term growth roadmap through a multi-dimensional strategy encompassing tie-ups with the farmers, collaborations with FPOs, Land acquisitions, and the Nashik Cluster Development Project. This project is expected to drive a meaningful improvement in gross margins from FY28 onwards, positioning us for next phase of growth.
