In the bustling street Markets, a young boy observed his parent's cautious approach to buying paneer from local vendors. The open, often exposed paneer left them worried about hygiene and quality. Little did anyone know; this boy would grow up to revolutionize the dairy industry? Radhey Shyam Dixit, the visionary Founder and Owner of the Ananda Group, not only introduced packaged paneer but also made it synonymous with safety and quality. His innovation ensured that families across India could enjoy their favourite dairy product without apprehension, marking a significant milestone in the dairy sector.


Widely recognized as the "Paneer King," Dr. Radhey Shyam Dixit transformed the dairy industry by introducing packaged paneer in India. Before his ground-breaking innovation, paneer was commonly sold in open form, often lacking hygiene and traceability. Dr. Dixit identified the need for a safer, more reliable option and launched packaged paneer under the "Ananda" brand, fundamentally changing consumer behaviours. Today, Ananda paneer, known for its trust and quality, is manufactured using advanced German technology and remains untouched by hand. This achievement underscores Dr. Dixit’s visionary leadership and unwavering commitment to excellence.


In the dynamic and fiercely competitive Indian dairy industry, Ananda Dairy has carved out a remarkable niche, founded and led by the visionary leadership of Dr. Radhe Shyam Dixit. With an annual turnover of Rs. 2,000 crore, Ananda Dairy stands as a testament to Dr. Dixit's strategic acumen and unwavering commitment to quality and community upliftment.

Under Dr. Dixit’s leadership, the company has since expanded its product portfolio to include a wide array of dairy products such as flavored milk, paneer, butter, ghee, cream, buttermilk, curd, lassi, and sweets. Today, Ananda Dairy also offers FMCG products including gram flour (besan), frozen products, oil and water.

“We have not only expanded our milk and milk product range but also strategically expanded into other product categories like foods and oils. Our promise to the customer is to offer the best quality products at unmatched prices, and we have consistently delivered on this for the last 35 years. However, our mission to empower dairy farmers and farmers remains the same. We want to contribute significantly to increase the incomes of farmers,” says Dr. Dixit, reflecting on his vision and commitment.
