Bihar Pavilion – Invest Bihar was inaugurated today at Hangar No. 1, Bharat Mandapam (Pragati Maidan), during the 4th edition of the mega food event World Food India 2025, being held from September 25–28. The pavilion was inaugurated by Shri B. Kartikeya Dhanji (IAS), Secretary, Department of Industries, Government of Bihar, in the presence of senior officials from the Industries Department.

This year, 12 stalls have been set up in the Bihar Pavilion by entrepreneurs from across the state. The pavilion has been designed around the themes of Invest Bihar, Bihar hai Taiyar, Advantage Bihar, Startup Bihar, and MSME Bihar, with the core objective of showcasing the state’s strengths and attracting maximum investment opportunities.

Speaking on the occasion, Shri B. Kartikeya Dhanji (IAS) said, "Through Invest Bihar at this mega food event, our primary goal is to encourage global partners and investors to consider Bihar as one of the most suitable states for investment in India.”

On the very first day of World Food India 2025,  Bihar Pavilion attracted strong interest from both domestic and international investors. Delegates from various countries visited the pavilion, interacted with officials from the Department of Industries, and discussed in detail the vast investment opportunities available in Bihar.

The pavilion witnessed a large turnout at MSME stalls, Startup stalls, and also at JEEViKA’s stall. The Sudha stall drew considerable attention with its popular offerings such as Gulab Jamun, Gujiya, Rasgulla, along with newly introduced products. Shri Amit Kumar Suman, Marketing Manager at Sudha, informed that Sudha has recently exported ghee and Gulab Jamun to the USA and Canada, and negotiations are underway with more importers. Products showcased by JEEViKA also won appreciation from visitors.

A major attraction was Bihar startup Agrifeeder’s stall, where Moringa leaves based sattu became crowd favorites. Co-founders Raman Kumar and Priya Pandey shared that after their popular Sattu with Lemon Leaf, they have now introduced Moringa Leaf Sattu with Channa as their signature product. “Focusing on health, we are positioning sattu as a nutritious energy drink and have launched it in six unique flavors. We are also the first company to introduce wheatgrass and chickpea sattu, which we are officially launching here at World Food India 2025,” they added.

Another startup, SattuZ, also drew significant attention with its wide range of flavored sattu. Meanwhile, the stall of Shri Kalisah Khaja from Silao, Nalanda—famous for its traditional sweet—was a major attraction among visitors.

The Invest Bihar Pavilion at World Food India 2025 truly reflects the entrepreneurial spirit of Bihar, bringing together a diverse range of unique, high-quality, and authentic products from the state onto the global platform.
