Industry visit: Parle

Abstract

On September 12, 2025, the Operations Club of Jaipuria Institute of Management, Indore, organized an industrial visit to Parle Industries, one of India’s most iconic FMCG brands with a legacy spanning over eight decades. Guided by faculty members Dr. Megha Jain, Dr. Manohar Kapse, Dr. Vinayak Vishwakarma, and Dr. Sudipta Nanda, the visit witnessed enthusiastic student participation as they explored the scale and discipline behind Parle’s large-scale operations. The session was facilitated by Mr. Sudeep Whilyiam, Operations Manager of Parle, Indore, who introduced the group to the company’s structured manufacturing practices, operational excellence, and the brand strength that has made Parle a household name across India and beyond. This immersive experience provided students with the opportunity to connect classroom concepts with real-time industrial applications, while simultaneously deepening their understanding of large-scale production management and offering valuable exposure to the FMCG sector.
