Awards, Acknowledgement and Appreciation

iD won an award in the 13th Employer Branding Awards endorsed by the World Federation of Marketing

Impeccable Innovations awarded the best food marketing idea for the iD TrustShop concept.

The president and the members of Rotary Club Vijaynagar, Bangalore awarded the Vocational Excellence Award 2016 to Mr. Musthafa PC and his team for excellence in Food Processing Industry.

India SME forum in association with Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises (MSME) Government of India, awarded iD Fresh Food as one of the top 100 SME companies in the overall evaluation of financial and non-financial parameters amongst 49023 nominations.

Indian Institute of Packaging (IIP) presented the Indiastar 2015 award to iD Fresh Food for its innovative packaging of its iD Idli and Dosa 1 kg Batter

This award is the 5th edition of Entrepreneur India Awards 2015, organized by US-based, Entrepreneur Magazine in media partnership with TIMES NOW.

In a market segment identified by the commodity itself more than the brands, iD's patented batter package design clearly stood out for its ergonomy, convenience and attention to aesthetic balance. Noticed & appreciated by consumers across India, the design has spawned several imitations. And indeed, we are thankful for the flattery.

This award was presented by Indian Economic Development and Research Association (IEDRA) on the occasion of national seminar on ‘National Economic Development & Social Responsibility’ held on 9th August 2012 at New Delhi.
