Godrej Industries’ Chemicals Business has completed the acquisition of Savannah Surfactants Limited’s Food Additives Business through a business transfer agreement. This strategic move will strengthen Godrej’s product portfolio in the global food and beverage sector, aligning with its broader vision for sustainable and profitable growth.

Vishal Sharma, Executive Director and CEO of Godrej Industries (Chemicals), said, “We are glad to have completed this transaction at the start of the fiscal year. This acquisition is in line with our vision and strategy to grow in a profitable and sustainable manner. The Savannah business will be part of our Speciality chemicals sector. The addition of this Food Additives Business will expand our speciality offerings and build a larger speciality business going forward.”

Godrej Industries (Chemicals), one of the oldest divisions of the Godrej Group established in 1963, is known for its focus on green chemistry and sustainability. With products derived largely from renewable vegetable oils, the company operates globally in over 80 countries, offering oleochemicals, surfactants, biotech products, and customised chemical solutions.

Its operations span diverse sectors including personal care, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and lubricants, supported by manufacturing facilities in Maharashtra and Gujarat, and an advanced R&D centre in India.

This acquisition reflects Godrej’s commitment to expanding its speciality chemicals footprint and further enhances its leadership in green and sustainable chemical solutions.
