In a bid to provide impetus to the food processing industries, the state government is planning to set up mega food parks in different locations across Odisha under the Centre’s Food Mega-Park Scheme. State PSUs -- IDCO, OSIC and Odisha Agro Industries Corporation Limited (OAIC) -- have expressed interest in setting up food mega-parks in the state, said an official.
