History

At its heyday, the brand Anikspray was originally developed and owned by Lipton India and Hindustan Unilever Limited. [1] [2] [3] In 1999, Hindustan Unilever sold its dairy products business as well the brands Anik, Anikspray and Anik Ghee to Nutricia (India) Private Limited, which was owned by the Dutch consumer products giant Numico. [2] [4]

Contents

In 2003, Numico decided to cease its operations in India and sold Nutricia to a consortium of four companies headed by Mirage Impex. [5] [6] The deal involving Mirage Impex was steered by Ashok Phadnis, a dairy business veteran who was previously the managing director of the Madhya Pradesh Dairy Federation. [5] [8]

Current Operations

Today, Anik Spray is manufactured by Anik Milk Products Private Limited, based in the city of Indore, Madhya Pradesh, India. [9] [7] Other than Anik Spray, the company also produces ghee that is sold under the brand name Anik Ghee. [9] [7]
