Trilegal advised Allana Group on the strategic joint venture between Allana Group’s subsidiary Indian Poultry Alliance Private Limited (IPA) and Infifresh Foods Limited (“Captain Fresh”) in formation of Indian Retail Alliance Private Limited (“IRAPL”), the joint venture entity.
As part of the transaction, Captain Fresh’s domestic business was transferred to IRAPL to form an integrated platform for scaling organised fresh protein retail in India.
The joint venture aims to build India’s first at-scale retail ecosystem in this segment by combining Allana Group’s expertise in chicken, ready-to-cook products, and protein processing with Captain Fresh’s seafood supply chain capabilities, omni-channel technology stack, under its retail brand ‘ChopServe’. The platform will integrate supply-side depth with an entrepreneur-led distribution model, targeting a 4,000-store retail network across India within four years, offering a basket of animal protein products.
This transaction also marks a significant step in Allana Group’s domestic expansion strategy leveraging IPA’s fully integrated poultry operations to build a dominant position in India’s organised fresh protein retail market.
