Bengaluru-based iD Fresh Food has announced key leadership changes as it gears up for its next phase of growth and a potential initial public offering (IPO). The company has appointed co-founder Abdul Nazer as Co-Chair, while Jaipal Singal has been elevated to Vice Chairman, continuing to serve as Global CFO, the company said in a statement on Wednesday.
The restructuring is aimed at strengthening governance and accelerating expansion across India and international markets, with a sharpened focus on innovation in the clean-label, ready-to-cook (RTC) food segment.
“This marks a proud and exciting moment in iD’s growth journey,” said P.C. Musthafa, Global CEO and Chairman of iD Fresh Food. “Abdul Nazer has been a pillar of strength since inception, and Jaipal has played a crucial role in steering our financial strategy. Their leadership will be pivotal as we continue to scale sustainably and innovate responsibly.”
Founded in 2005, iD Fresh Food has built a strong presence in the fresh and ready-to-cook foods category, offering products such as idli-dosa batter, parotas, and chapatis. The brand has expanded operations beyond India to markets including the UAE and other international regions.
Commenting on his new role, Nazer said his focus will remain on building a sustainable, mission-driven organisation committed to delivering authentic, clean food globally. Singal added that his priorities include strengthening financial resilience and driving long-term value creation as the company prepares for a potential public listing.
The leadership rejig underscores iD Fresh Food’s ambition to consolidate its market position and pursue sustainable, innovation-led growth as it enters the next chapter of its expansion journey.
