What Innodis does

Innodis is a Mauritius-headquartered, publicly listed (SEM:INNODIS) integrated food company founded in 1973 that operates as a manufacturer, distributor, retailer, and marketer of poultry and dairy products. Headquartered in Port Louis, the company employs 1,001–5,000 people and serves the Mauritian consumer market through a vertically integrated value chain spanning production, distribution, retail, and marketing of staple animal-protein and dairy categories.

The company's business model combines upstream manufacturing of poultry and dairy with downstream distribution and retail operations, capturing margin at multiple stages of the value chain on a small island market where scale and integrated logistics are difficult for new entrants to replicate. Revenue grew from roughly MUR 104.8 billion in 2021 to MUR 138.0 billion in 2025, with EBITDA more than doubling over the same period to MUR 10.2 billion and net income reaching MUR 2.3 billion in 2025, indicating both volume growth and material margin expansion. The enterprise value has fluctuated between approximately MUR 69.5 billion and MUR 83.6 billion in recent years.
