“With the completion of the acquisition, we bring Axiom fully into the Emami fold, marking our formal entry into the fast-growing & huge beverage segment.

Commenting on the development, Mr Rishabh Gupta, Founder, Axiom Ayurveda Pvt Ltd said, “Consumers today are increasingly moving away from carbonated beverages and seeking healthier alternatives without compromising on taste. At Axiom, we have always focused on delivering a differentiated offering that combines health and taste, which has been central to our journey and that makes us different from other beverage companies.
I am confident that Emami is the right partner to take Axiom into its next phase of growth. With its deep industry expertise, strong capabilities, and alignment with the brand’s vision, Emami is well-positioned to scale the company further and unlock its full potential”.
