Textured Soy Protein Manufacturer in India

Zippy Edibles manufactures a complete range of textured soy protein products using HMMA (High Moisture Meat Analog) extrusion at our Rudrapur facility. The same platform serves two buyer types: B2B protein ingredients (keema mince, shawarma shreds, slices, chunks, plain chaap, cheese analogue) for food manufacturers and meat processors, and finished frozen ready-to-cook formats (veg protein steak, nuggets, seekh kebab, galouti kebab, patties, tandoori fish, cheese balls, popcorn nuggets, sausages, momos, drumsticks) for brands, QSR chains, and export. With 15 MT/day frozen RTC capacity, a 3-pass coating line, continuous fryer, and 300 MT cold storage, we offer end-to-end private label and contract manufacturing.

Product Range

Range 1 of 4

B2B Ingredients

HMMA bulk ingredient SKUs for meat-analogue brands, ready-meal manufacturers, and meat-extender applications. Keema mince, shawarma shreds, protein slices, chunks, plain whole-muscle chaap rolls, and protein cheese analogue. The layered fibrous structure means it cooks and bites like meat, not like dry TVP. Supplied in bulk cartons or food-grade sacks, MOQ 1 MT, custom blends and inclusion ratios available for specific meat-extender applications.

Kebabs

Veg kebabs built on the HMMA base, full meat-mimic textures. Seekh kebab holds shape on the skewer and through tandoor or microwave reheat. Galouti delivers soft-mouthfeel for premium menu builds. Both finished frozen SKUs and unflavoured kebab base supplied; QSR chains and cloud kitchens often layer their own marinade. 1 MT MOQ standard, 5 MT custom.

Specialty Products

Whole-muscle formats - veg protein steak, tikka, sausages, and momos for retail, QSR menu add-ons, and ready-meal kits. The veg protein steak is a centre-of-plate hero format: marinated HMMA fillet with crosshatch scoring and visible char, fibrous interior that holds marinade and grills like real meat. Tava-ready and grill-ready, frozen or retort pouch. Our tikka format is in commercial production for leading QSR chains on rice-bowl menus across India. Holds through delivery, holds on hot-hold counters, and rehydrates marinade cleanly through fibrous HMMA layering. Sausages and momos run on the same line with custom seasoning. Pilot batches supported for new brand launches.

How It’s Made

1

HMMA Base Production

Soy protein flour is processed through our Coperion ZSK 54 HMMA extruder to create the textured protein base, with over 50% protein on dry basis - the foundation for all our ingredient SKUs and finished snacks.

2

Cutting & Forming

The HMMA base is cut and formed into the requested format - bulk ingredient SKUs (mince, slices, chunks, shreds, chaap rolls) or formed snacks (nuggets, kebabs, patties, drumsticks, cheese balls, tandoori fish). Custom shapes available for brand-specific products.

3

Coating & Seasoning

Finished snacks pass through our 3-pass coating line for consistent, even coverage. Batter, breading, and seasoning are applied in controlled layers. Custom coating formulations developed for each customer.

4

Frying & Cooking

Coated products go through the continuous fryer for uniform cooking and crispy texture. Temperature and time are precisely controlled for consistent results across every batch.

5

Freezing & Packaging

Products are rapidly frozen using an IQF spiral freezer and a trolley blast freezer. Bulk B2B packaging for ingredients (cartons or food-grade sacks) and retail or foodservice packaging for snacks. Cold chain maintained from production to dispatch.

Manufacturing FAQ

What textured soy protein products does Zippy manufacture?+
We manufacture two complementary ranges on a single HMMA platform. B2B ingredients: keema mince, shawarma shreds, protein slices, chunks, plain chaap (whole muscle), and protein cheese analogue - for meat analog brands, ready-meal manufacturers, and meat extender applications. Finished frozen formats: veg protein steak, nuggets, seekh kebab, galouti kebab, patties, tandoori fish, cheese balls, popcorn nuggets, sausages, momos, and drumsticks - for retail brands, QSR chains, and export. Custom shapes and formulations available.
How are HMMA products different from TVP?+
TVP (textured vegetable protein) uses dry extrusion - the result is spongy, with uniform texture that doesn't resemble real meat. HMMA (High-Moisture Meat Analog) uses our Coperion twin-screw extruder at high moisture and shear to create layered, fibrous protein with realistic meat-like texture. The difference is immediately noticeable in taste, mouthfeel, and cooking behavior.
Can the ingredients be used as a meat extender?+
Yes, this is a growing use case. Our textured protein mince and chunks blend cleanly with animal meat in sausage, kebab, and patty applications. Improves yield, protein-on-protein cost ratio, and reduces cook-loss. Formulations can be tuned for specific meat types and inclusion ratios.
Do you offer private label manufacturing for finished snacks?+
Yes. Private label is a core business. We handle everything from product development to packaging. You get a finished, retail-ready product with your branding. Current customers include major QSR chains, D2C brands, and retail private labels. Development timeline: 4-8 weeks for custom products.
What is the shelf life of frozen products?+
Frozen products have 12-month shelf life at -18C. Our IQF spiral and trolley blast freezing ensures rapid, uniform freezing that preserves texture and flavor. We maintain 300 MT cold storage capacity for buffer stock and quick dispatch.
What's the minimum order?+
1 MT for standard SKUs, 5 MT for custom formulations. Pilot runs supported for brand development and ingredient blend trials.
