On the occasion of the virtual laying of the foundation stone of the future extension of the Mondelez snacks factory at Sri City in Tirupati district, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy laid the foundation stone for three tomato processing units. The tomato processing units are coming up at Kalyandurgam and Kundurpi mandals in Anantapur district and Chennekothapalli in Sri Sathya Sai district.

To be built at a cost of Rs 5.5 crore (Euro 624,000 or USD 662,000) each, these processing units will have an annual capacity of 3,600 tonne, benefiting 3,588 farmers to process 1.5 metric tonne of tomatoes per hour among others.
