There has been a decline in the Industry Essentials business of AWL Agri Business Limited (formerly Adani Wilmar Limited) for FY 2024-25.

For the entire fiscal year, the company reported strong volume growth of 10% YoY, with edible oils contributing 10% YoY increase and Food & FMCG sectors achieving a robust 28% YoY growth. However, there has been a decline in Industry Essentials business.

The year ended with a total revenue of about Rs. 62,000 crores, resulting in a strong 26% YoY growth.

AWL Agri Business Limited recorded a robust 7% YoY volume growth in Q4. Revenue saw a significant 36% YoY increase in Q4 compared to the previous year.

The company witnessed better growth in rural towns compared to urban markets, especially in the Foods category, driven by expanded reach and market penetration.

The company met its objective of extending its reach to 50,000 rural towns through the addition of distributors, sub-distributors, and an expanded rural sales force. This represents a ten-fold increase over three years, up from 5,000 rural towns in FY22.

Our quick commerce sales volume has experienced exceptional growth, marking the best quarter in two years with a remarkable 100%+ YoY increase in Q4. This growth reflects our strategic focus on operational improvements—particularly in product assortment, availability, and promotions and advertisements, allowing us to tap into the rapidly expanding quick commerce channel. Modern Trade channel growth was driven by an uptick in omni-channel sales.

Overall, revenue from alternate channels—Modern Trade, e- commerce, quick commerce, and e-B2B—has crossed Rs. 3,600 crores in FY ’25.

The company’s strategy to capture a fair share in under-indexed markets is yielding strong results. Specifically, the South region experienced a 25% YoY growth in branded edible oils and foods in FY ’25, with the region’s share of overall branded sales surpassing 10%.

The name of the company has been changed to AWL Agri Business Limited from Adani Wilmar Limited with effect from 17th March 2025 pursuant to the fresh certificate of incorporation received from the Ministry of Corporate Affairs.
