Cargill Plans Major Expansion with 500 New Jobs at Indian GCCs
Cargill, a family-owned multinational company,  that provides food, ingredients, agricultural solutions and industrial products, has announced plans to increase its digital and technology workforce in India. As per reports, the company plans to add 500 positions over the next two to three years, increasing its total headcount to 3,500. The recruitment will focus on tech-based roles in data engineering, analytics, and artificial intelligence, primarily in Bengaluru. This expansion is separate from Cargill’s global restructuring announced in December, which included job cuts in sectors like supply chain and inventory controls, Reuters reported. The company aims to reduce its technology outsourcing from 80% to 40% within the same timeframe. Cargill operates two global capability centres (GCCs) in India. While the one in Bengaluru focuses on technology operations, another in Gurugram handles finance and human resource functions. The company collaborates with partners like Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Accenture. Meanwhile, Cargill’s Smart Manufacturing initiative modernises its North American protein operations using advanced technology and data. This programme aims to enhance workplace safety for employees while strengthening supply chain resilience for customers. Currently, Cargill has implemented over 100 ‘Factory of the Future’ projects across 35 facilities in North America. One example of this innovation is a 3D vision system that optimises the meat-cutting process in real time.
