For over years, soft faces turned hard muscular but Parle-G remained the same. The only change which I noticed was with the packaging. Earlier it used to be paper iconic white and yellow wax paper wrapper but later no it started to come in hard polythene packaging. It is the largest selling brand in the world as per the 2011 report of Nielson. Primarily, consumed as a tea time snack, till the 1980s it was known as ‘Parle Gluco’. G stands for Glucose which later became famous as G for Genius slogan. And today we are going to talk about the Nutritional Value of Parle – G.
I found this packet totally different from what it was. New packaging with a different new design.
The most amazing thing is that there are hundreds of biscuit brands available in the market but as a child, we (especially 90s kids) have our hearts throbbed for this sweet snack. The memories are sweet and so the relation is. The snack became a habit. –The company Parle Products was established as Vile Parle in 1929. -In 1939, the company started making biscuits.
– From 1996 to 2006 the price remained the same. – Parle turned out to be India’s first domestic FMCC brand to cross 5,000 crores in the retail sales in 2013.
-The biscuit used to come in a white-yellow wax paper wrapper. – The most famous Parle girl isn’t real. – The company owns 4 manufacturing units in India being the biggest ones. -While you are reading it, around 4500 people are enjoying their Parle Moment at this time.
– Around one billion packets are manufactured monthly. – Parle was the first to advertise at Mumbai local train compartments when it was allowed by Indian Railways.
