Our Company was incorporated on December 29, 1992 as Gokul Refoils and

 In the year 1982, our Promoters made a modest start by setting up a
 small solvent extraction unit and
 trading in edible oils. In line with our long term vision our
 promoters incorporated our Company in
 1992 and setup an oil refinery at Sidhpur, in Gujarat. In 2003 our
 Company setup another refinery of
 800 TPD and Vanaspati plant of 100 TPD at Gandhidham. In 2006 we
 setup four environment friendly
 wind mills of 1.25 MW each in Kutch and co-generation power plant of
 500 KWH at the Gandhidham
 unit. In 2007 we purchased a 100 TPD operational refinery in Surat.
 Towards expanding the scale of
 operations and having global presence we setup offices in Mauritius
 and Singapore. Today the group’s
 interest includes manufacturing and refining of edible oil, castor
 oil and its derivatives, vanaspati,
 solvent extraction, power generation, commodity trading in the
