THE R&D WING OF PURI OIL MILLS LIMITED INVITES PROPOSALS FOR COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH PROJECTS

MRPC, the R&D Wing of Puri Oil Mills Limited, invites research organisations to join hands for scientific research, product development and innovation in the domain of Mustard – spanning the entire Mustard value chain including mustard oil, mustard variants and value-added mustard-based products.

Puri Oil Mills Limited is a leading producer of mustard oil which is marketed under the brand name of P Mark Mustard Oil. The company is guided by a Vision to be acknowledged as the Last Word in Mustard. The company established an in-house research entity called MRPC in 1999 pooling the knowledge and capabilities of scientists from various fields including agriculture, oil technology and food science to name a few.

In an environment characterised by globalisation, intense competition and rising R&D costs, collaboration has emerged as a viable model for sustaining technological advancement. We believe that a collaborative R&D partnership will be reinforced through mutual interdependence. For such collaborative projects Puri Oil Mills Limited will provide the requisite financial and technical support.

Interested research organisations may send a brief introduction along with credentials to support their domain expertise and R&D capabilities on or before 31st July 2022 using the format given here:
