Sona Machinery, a listed industry leader in the rice & grain processing segment, has taken another significant step in expanding its global footprint with the successful launch of a state-of-the-art rice mill and parboiling dryer plant in Sarlahi Ishwarpur, Nepal.

This latest installation marks a new chapter for the company in Nepal, where it has already been involved in multiple rice mill setups. Unlike previous projects that worked around rice mill plant setup, this facility is a full turnkey solution – designed, manufactured, and commissioned entirely by Sona Machinery’s in-house team. The addition of a parboiling dryer plant positions the installation as a comprehensive, one-stop solution for rice processing in the region.

Speaking on the development, Vasu Naren, chairman & managing director of Sona Machinery, said, "This project in Sarlahi Ishwarpur marks a milestone for us—not just in Nepal, but in our turnkey capability delivery. By offering everything from in-house manufacturing to final commissioning, we ensure higher efficiency, better quality control, and a seamless experience for our clients."

With over 200 successful projects across India and growing international projects in Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa, Bangladesh, and Nepal, Sona Machinery continues to empower agricultural economies through engineering excellence.

Looking ahead, the company plans to expand its rice mill & parboiling dryer plants, thereby providing one stop solution for turnkey rice mills, to European countries, Africa, and Bangladesh—reinforcing its vision of enabling global food security through robust, future-ready rice & grain processing solutions.
