Why food testing matters in Chennai
Chennai's food economy runs on two tracks: a fast-growing domestic HoReCa and packaged food market along OMR and in the city centre, and a substantial export processing sector around Ambattur, Sriperumbudur and Oragadam feeding spices, produce and processed foods to international buyers. Export consignments face rejection risk from residue and contaminant limits that can be stricter than FSSAI's own, making pre-shipment testing essential.
