Ball Corporation to invest 60 million USD in Andhra Pradesh

New Delhi, Nov 14 (UNI) Ball Corporation, a global leader in sustainable aluminum packaging, will invest about 60 million US Dollars in its Sri City manufacturing facility in Andhra Pradesh, reinforcing its long-term commitment to meet growing customer demand and strengthen the regional supply chain in one of Asia’s fastest-growing consumer markets.
“India is key to our global strategy and this investment reflects our focused approach to scaling operations in high-growth markets and securing long-term competitive advantage. We are exploring further investments to support the continued growth of the Indian market as more brands and consumers are choosing aluminum packaging,” Mandy Glew, President, Ball Beverage Packaging EMEA and Asia, said.
Ball’s investment directly supports the growth of India’s beverage can market, projected to expand by over 10 percent annually over the next five years. As consumer demand shifts toward more sustainable and convenient formats, new product categories – particularly in the dairy segment – are gaining momentum.
Ready-to-drink (RTD) beverages and milk-based drinks are increasingly turning to aluminum as a preferred solution for modern dairy packaging.
Leveraging its retort innovation technology, Ball enables these products to achieve extended shelf life while maintaining taste and nutritional integrity. This capability strengthens Ball’s position as a key enabler of packaging transformation in India’s evolving beverage landscape.
“This is a pivotal moment for our India team,” said Manish Joshi, Regional Commercial Director – Asia, Ball Beverage Packaging India.
