Dabur India has begun building its first manufacturing facility in South India at Tindivanam, Tamil Nadu, with an investment of Rs 400 crore. This new plant is designed to be a modern, sustainable unit that runs entirely on renewable energy and promotes inclusive hiring practices. It is expected to strengthen Dabur’s supply chain and expand its presence in the southern market.
One of the most significant impacts of this project is job creation. The plant is expected to generate around 250 direct jobs, offering stable employment opportunities in the region. In addition, thousands of indirect jobs are likely to be created through supply chains, logistics, packaging, and ancillary services. This will provide a boost to local businesses and communities, supporting economic growth in and around Tindivanam.
The facility also aims to set new benchmarks in responsible manufacturing. With advanced technology, a focus on sustainability, and a commitment to inclusive hiring—particularly encouraging women’s participation—the plant reflects Dabur’s vision of future ready operations. By locating production closer to consumers in South India, Dabur can deliver products faster and fresher while contributing to regional development.
The facility will reportedly initially produce Dabur’s popular toothpastes such as Red and Meswak, along with personal care products such as Gulabari, Vatika Hair Oil, and Anmol Hair Oil. Over time, production will expand to include Real Juices, Amla Hair Oil, and other well known brands, making Tindivanam a key hub in Dabur’s nationwide manufacturing network.
