Aarti Industries new contract details
In an exchange filing dated March 12, Aarti Industries said it has entered into a multi-year supply agreement with a global agrochemical innovator for the supply of a critical agrochemical intermediate used in crop protection formulations, worth about $150 million.
According to the filing, the agreement will remain in effect until March 31, 2030, transforming an existing annual arrangement into a structured medium-term supply contract with increased volumes.
Under the deal, Aarti Industries will produce and supply a key agrochemical intermediate used in crop-protection formulations for global agricultural markets.
The company added that the contract is expected to generate around $150 million in revenue over the duration of the agreement.
