Munching on namkeen and other snacks is an\nold practice in India. However, in recent years, the number of available\nnamkeens has grown exponentially. Researchers claim there are around 1000 snack\nitems sold in India – of different tastes, forms, textures, aromas, sizes,\nshapes and fillings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The namkeen market is a fast growing one in\nIndia. Indians seem to have rediscovered their taste for traditional Indian\nsnacks such as sev, bhujia, namkeen mixtures, ghatiya, papdi, masala nuts,\nchevra, chaklis, fried daals, etc. Traditional snacks now account for more than\nhalf the snack market with both multinationals and homegrown companies pushing\nnamkeens farther and wider with attractive packaging and pricing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The market is expanding further as health- and hygiene-conscious consumers with more purchasing power turn to packaged namkeens rather than loose namkeen from the neighbourhood ‘namkeenwala’ or ‘mithaiwala’.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n
