About Christy Group
Enterprise with
human purpose.

Our enterprise
Rooted in Tiruchengode. Built to make a difference.
Christy Group began in 1989 when first-generation entrepreneur Shri T. S. Kumarasamy established Christy Friedgram Industry.
The early enterprise combined technology and nutrition with a clear social purpose. From that foundation, the Group expanded thoughtfully into quality foods, home textiles, terry towels and agriculture—each business shaped by disciplined execution and a commitment to creating value beyond the factory gate.
35+Years of purposeful enterprise and continuous growth.
