Omshree Group – Nourishing the World with Sustainable Soya Solutions

August 20, 2019

Founded in 1975, the Omshree Group is a government-certified 2-Star Export House, headquartered in Maharashtra, India. It has grown to become a globally recognised leader in the production and export of high-quality organic and non-GMO soybeans and their value-added derivatives. Through its vertically integrated operations, the group supplies protein-rich ingredients to the food, pharma and feed industries worldwide.

The group comprises several specialised companies that cover different areas of the soya value chain, including value-added products, organic offerings and cattle feed. Together, they support a fully integrated processing infrastructure, including crushing, extrusion, oil refining and solvent extraction.

Omshree Group offers a diverse range of high-quality soy-based products that reflect its commitment to nutrition, consistency, and supply chain integrity. Its portfolio includes defatted soya flakes, flour, and grits, both toasted and untoasted, as well as non-GMO soya lecithin, Textured Vegetable Protein granules and chunks, and soyabean meal in both conventional and organic varieties. The company also produces crude and refined soyabean oil. With over 150+ international buyers and 500+ domestic clients, Omshree has earned a strong reputation for reliability and innovation in global markets.

Sustainability & ProTerra Commitment

The Omshree Group’s business model is centred on sustainability. The company is ProTerra certified, ensuring compliance with stringent standards for environmentally sound, socially responsible, non-GMO agricultural practices. It is also certified by FoodChain ID, whose verification process ensures product traceability, purity and safety. These certifications demonstrate the company’s commitment to maintaining the highest global standards of sustainability and food safety.

Sustainability Measures in Practice

In addition to its certifications, Omshree Group has implemented practical sustainability measures across all its operations. One of its facilities is fully powered by solar energy, and there are plans in place to increase the use of renewable energy at all sites. The company also uses biomass-based boilers fuelled by agricultural residues such as bagasse and corn cobs. This reduces reliance on fossil fuels and contributes to a circular economy. Its zero-residue, zero-waste policy ensures that every part of the soybean is utilised, further reinforcing its commitment to resource efficiency and sustainable production.

Empowering Farmers, Strengthening Supply Chains

Omshree Group recognises that sustainability starts at the source, which is why it actively supports farming communities across its supply chains. The company promotes sustainable agricultural practices by providing training and technical assistance, as well as offering premium prices for non-GMO and ProTerra-compliant crops. Implementing direct procurement models and supporting identity-preserved sourcing enhances traceability, improves farmers’ profitability, and reinforces supply chain transparency.

Our Future Commitments

Looking ahead, Omshree Group remains committed to advancing its sustainability efforts. Priorities include expanding the use of renewable energy, adopting zero-waste production models, and promoting regenerative agriculture to improve soil health. The company is also exploring sustainable packaging and logistics solutions to further reduce its environmental footprint. Guided by principles of ethical sourcing, environmental stewardship, and community engagement, Omshree continues to contribute to global food systems by providing sustainable, plant-based protein solutions that support both people and the planet.
