Zuari Industries' SPE Division has achieved a landmark sugarcane crushing volume of 159.7 lakh quintals for the fiscal year 2026. This figure represents the division's highest-ever performance, exceeding its previous record set in FY25. The success is a direct result of several strategic operational improvements and favorable conditions.
