Dalmia Continental Pvt. Ltd

Dalmia Continental Pvt Ltd (DCPL), a Dalmia family venture, was incorporated in 1990. In 2003, DCPL launched Leonardo Olive Oil®, which soon became the leading brand in its product segment and a pioneer in establishing the popularity, image and use of olive oil in India. In 2014, DCPL sold Leonardo Olive Oil to Cargill India. In 2007, DCPL launched Hudson Canola Oil™, a heart-healthy edible oil. Canola is ideal for Indian cooking since it is a standard edible grade oil with neutral taste and flavour. It is also extremely healthy, with the lowest content of saturated fats amongst all oils, high levels of monounsaturated fats, antioxidants and Omega-3. DCPL made Hudson Canola Oil a leading brand and household name. In 2018, DCPL sold the Hudson Canola Oil brand to Bunge India. In 2013, DCPL launched Marco Polo OliRyze, a blend of rice brand oil & olive pomace oil. In addition DCPL’s product line included Leonardo Olives, Leonardo Pasta, Leonardo Olive Oil Pickles & Leonardo Hazelnuts. Besides its own brands Leonardo, Hudson & Marco Polo, DCPL at various times also exclusively marketed and sold Clausthaler Non-alcoholic Beer, Grace Kennedy Coconut Water & ArteOliva sauces and dressing. Today, the Dalmia family and its relatives have interests, among others, in publishing, explosives, cement, magnesite, sugar, milk products, leisure resorts and hotels, refractories, castings, cigarettes, soda ash, textiles and services such as advertising, travel management, television programming, software development and finance. The total turnover of these companies exceeds US $ 15 billion.
