Real Juices are brought to you in a Tetra pack with a double seal spill proof cap which retains
the freshness of the juice. The special technology used in the packaging keeps the juice fresher
for a longer period of time with no added preservatives. On opening, the pack has to be
refrigerated and consumed within 5 days. Real is a natural fruit juice with no added
preservatives, no artificial flavours or colours. Depending on the fruit flavour, it is reinforced
with additional minerals and vitamins that add extra energy. There is also a dash of added
sugar for better taste, just like we add sugar to a fresh fruit juice made at home. The nutritional
value varies depending on the fruit flavour. Check the Real site for the nutritional facts of each
Real flavour. Having at least 5 portions of fruits or fruit juices give a natural and healthy
source of essential nutrients. Natural fruit juices not only provide nutrition, they are also a good
way of fluid intake, which is essential for maintaining good health. Fruit juices are better than
aerated drinks, which have no nutritional value. Real Juices are brought to you in hygienic
packaging with added nutrients. They are processed and packed in state-of-the-art plants,
absolutely untouched by hands to maintain hygiene and quality. They have the goodness of
juice from a freshly plucked fruit. Real juices bring the true taste of fruits you & your whole
family can enjoy all year long, without waiting for the right season for fresh fruits.

SUPPLY:
Real Fruit Juice being a perishable product has to have a proper supply chain management. The
retailers have a regular supply of the product from the nearby distributor. Dabur has also taken
initiatives to maintain a systematic supply chain.
Dabur Foods has a distribution network that covers 175 towns and 75 thousand retail outlets
making its product available to the consumers across the country at ease.
Dabur Foods through its sister concern has set up the state-of-the art facility in Birganj, Nepal
in 1,00,000 Sq ft of area. Dabur Food produces around 50 million litres of juice annually.
The plant’s manufacturing system meets the stringent requirements of the Codex Alimentarius
Commission Guidelines, The recommended International Code of Practices and the General
Principles of Food Hygiene.It was the commissioning of the Siliguri multi fruit processing
facility, the largest in West Bengal, the fruit-growing bowl in India. Spread over 11 acres
and geared to process 150 tonnes of fruit per day, it has the capacity of 192 metric tones of
pulp/concentrate (estimated). Annually the plant procures fruit worth Rs. 6 Crores from states
like West Bengal, North-east, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, and Andhra Pradesh. It has
the highest capacity utilization by processing Pineapple, Litchi, Guava, Mango and Grape
round the year. The plant even serves as an R&D center for difficult to process fruits like
Watermelon and Pomegranate. This state-of-the-art plant also minimizes the wastage and
renders high yield.
Dabur has undertaken e-procurement in a big way. Dabur India procured Rs.210 crore of raw
materials through e-sourcing — or almost 50 per cent of total raw material expenditure — and,
in the process, considerably controlled raw material costs which were on a rise.
For better production and operation management, Dabur included automation, debottlenecking,
Kaizen and wastage control. It set up production units in locations providing tax holidays to
reduce cost and improve efficiency.
