    <fulldesc>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hyderabad, Jan 22 (KNN) &lt;/strong&gt;Consumer goods giant Unilever has committed to establishing two new manufacturing facilities in Telangana, following discussions between Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy and Unilever CEO Hein Schumacher at the World Economic Forum annual meeting in Davos.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The announcement marks a significant expansion of Unilever's presence in the state, where its operations have been limited despite maintaining multiple manufacturing sites across India.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;During the meeting, Chief Minister Reddy emphasised Telangana's strategic geographical position as a gateway to southern India and its connectivity to other regions of the country.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;In response to these discussions, Unilever announced plans to construct a palm oil facility and refining unit in the state. The Telangana government has proposed locating the facility in Kamareddy district and assured full support for the project.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Additionally, Unilever will establish a second manufacturing unit dedicated to bottle cap production.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;In a separate development, the Telangana government strengthened its position in the space technology sector by signing a Memorandum of Understanding with Hyderabad-based Skyroot.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The agreement involves the development of an integrated private rocket manufacturing, integration, and testing facility in the state.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Skyroot has committed to investing approximately Rs 500 crore in this venture, further solidifying Telangana's growing presence in the aerospace industry.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;(KNN Bureau)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
