Heritage Foods Ltd. marked its 35th Foundation Day today, celebrating a journey shaped by pure resolve, purpose and enduring partnerships with farmers and consumers. Founded in 1992 with a mission to empower dairy farmers and bring fresh, nutritious dairy products to households across India, the company has grown into one of the country’s most trusted dairy brands while staying true to the values on which it was built.
Over the years, Heritage Foods has continued to navigate a dynamic business environment with resilience and discipline, guided by the same spirit of pure resolve that has defined its journey from the beginning. This year too brought its share of headwinds, yet the company remained focused on strengthening the dairy ecosystem and creating long-term value for all stakeholders.
The year also brought meaningful progress in deepening the companies connect with farmers and strengthening its sourcing network. By expanding its procurement footprint and adding new chilling infrastructure, Heritage Foods reinforced its long-standing commitment to working closely with dairy farmers and supporting livelihoods at the village level.
On its Foundation Day, Heritage Foods also introduced new consumer-facing initiatives that reflect its focus on innovation, relevance and quality. The launches included the Creamy Shake range in Badam and Mango variants, developed for digital-savvy Gen Z and young millennials who seek expressive, experience- led products. The range comes in a compact 1G5 ml pack priced at Rs 40. The Badam Creamy Shake offers rich creaminess with real badam bits and 5.2% fat, while the Mango Creamy Shake combines real mango pulp with a smooth, creamy taste and 3.8% fat. With youthful, shareable packaging and a digital-first positioning, the range is designed to encourage self-expression and everyday enjoyment.
The brand also launched a Heritage Probiotic Buttermilk Influencer Campaign, aimed at building awareness around a refreshing, health-forward everyday product. The campaign reinforces buttermilk as both a traditional and contemporary choice in the wellness space, while helping the brand connect more closely with modern consumers through relevant storytelling and digital engagement.
The brand also introduced Frozen Malai Paneer Cubes, a convenient new format that brings together softness, creaminess and taste with the added benefit of being rich in protein and calcium. With an extended shelf life of six months, the product is designed to offer greater convenience while staying true to Heritage’s commitment to freshness, quality and consumer trust.
