Made in Sandila — India’s largest yeast-producing location
Sandila’s industrial estate on the Lucknow–Hardoi road hosts a large molasses-based yeast plant that the Hardoi district industrial profile describes as the largest in India, supported by the sugar mills of the surrounding cane belt that supply the molasses feedstock. The same estate now houses national food and beverage manufacturers, so food-grade warehousing and testing are available on site.
Wedge Industries Limited supplies yeast as a trading and consolidation SKU — combining it with snacks, jaggery and spices from the same district to fill mixed food containers for distributors in the Gulf and Africa.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between instant and active dry yeast?
Instant dry yeast is added directly to flour and has finer granules and lower moisture; active dry yeast needs rehydrating in warm water first. Instant is the standard export grade; both are available.
Do you supply high-sugar-tolerant yeast?
Yes — an osmotolerant instant grade for sweet doughs with more than 10% sugar, in the same 500 g packs.
Can you ship fresh yeast?
Fresh compressed yeast ships only by full reefer container at 0–4 °C to regional markets such as Nepal, Bangladesh and the Gulf, because of its two- to three-week shelf life.
What documents accompany a shipment?
Certificate of analysis, Halal and Kosher certificates, FSSC 22000 certificate copy, GMO-free declaration and, where required, a health certificate from the Indian export inspection authority.
