Abstract :
In this study, an endeavor is made to investigate
the product and process innovations in new-generation
flour mills. The District Industry Centers (DIC) of
Kerala's records were used to compile the information for
the chosen product classes. Kerala's diverse culture and
traditions fused innovative ideas with available ingredients
to make a variety of tasty dishes. Grain flour and spices
formed the major ingredient, which elevated the role of
flour mills. The questionnaire approach was used to gather
the data from each of these firms. According to a thorough
research of patterns of product diversification among
various categories, diversification of products happens
across all market segments. One of the main
responsibilities of every flour mill is ensuring quality and
safety. To fulfil the requirements, enterprises expanded the
production profile with grain flours, spices powder, and a
blend of spices. By offering new varieties, the flour mill
business might significantly boost output value; as a result,
diversification also directly affects product development.
The study analyzes product and process innovations in
flour mills of Kerala as well as the methods to tackle their
challenges.
