AMUL Chocolate Factory

AMUL Chocolate Factory in Mogar, Anand (celebrated globally as India's most advanced and iconic cooperative chocolate manufacturing plant, inaugurated in 1973 by Iron Man of India's legacy cooperative movement and expanded with an ultra modern 1,000 tonne automated confectionery line, world famous for producing Amul Dark Chocolate, artisanal single origin cocoa bars, milk chocolates, and offering fascinating educational industrial tours), located in Mogar along NH 48 in Anand in Gujarat, stands as Anand's premier industrial and culinary tourism destination.

Established by the Gujarat Co operative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF) under the vision of Dr. Verghese Kurien to use surplus milk solids while empowering South Indian cocoa farmers through cooperative procurement, this sprawling high tech plant processes premium cocoa beans into world class chocolate products enjoyed across 50+ countries.

It's the home of the automated chocolate processing line where visitors can observe bean roasting, winnowing, microscopic refining, multi day conching, continuous tempering, molding, and automated robotic foil packaging through sanitized viewing galleries, the interactive Cocoa Sensory Lounge explaining the origin of cocoa pods from Kerala and Karnataka farms, the flagship Amul Chocolate Shoppe offering the complete range of 55% to 99% Dark Chocolates, roasted almond bars, gourmet fruit and-nut slabs, and fresh cocoa drinks, the landscaped green campus with children's play zones, and an intensely delightful, aroma filled atmosphere where the sweet fragrance of melting cocoa butter and roasted chocolate delights visitors of all ages.

It represents a rich 50 year-old Indian cooperative confectionery milestone, White Revolution synergy, and agro industrial innovation where automated conching lines, single origin dark chocolates, cocoa processing galleries, and flagship Amul parlours unite in AMUL Chocolate Factory Anand.

Located at Mogar on the National Highway 48 (Ahmedabad Vadodara Highway), it sits just 8 km south of Anand Junction Railway Station, 12 km from central Anand city, 35 km from Vadodara, and 75 km from Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad (AMD), easily accessible by highway express buses, private cars, or auto rickshaws.

Bean to-Bar Processing & Automated Conching

The plant imports select African and South Indian cocoa beans, roasting and refining them with pure dairy butter without vegetable oil adulteration.

Automated Swiss engineered conching machines grind cocoa mass continuously for 48 to 72 hours to achieve Amul's trademark silky smooth texture.

Truth is, inhaling the warm, rich aroma of molten dark chocolate as you walk through the glass paneled observation deck is sheer joy.
