Kolkata, referred to as the City of Joy, is located in the eastern part of India in the state of West Bengal. The language, culture, food and overall lifestyle are unique in terms of taste, flavour and condiments. The preference for unpackaged rather than packaged food, and fresh food over processed food continues to be very strong in the city. The growth potential for packaged food manufacturers is immense in the city.
