India-based Kothari Industrial Corp. Ltd. has launched a fast-moving consumer goods and vending division, according to a Whalesbook report.

The company introduced four brands — Vendiko, Chusip, Nabako and the Crafted Circle — and plans to distribute products through technology-driven channels, including vending machines in major Indian cities and transit hubs.

The move represents a diversification beyond Kothari's traditional businesses in textiles, sugar and chemicals. The company aims to tap into growing demand for convenience and modern retail formats, positioning vending and smart distribution as key drivers of future growth in India's expanding consumer market.
