Solution: Sauces were reformulated in the food research lab (FRL) without adding any artificial preservatives and studied for shelf life. Further analysed for the physicochemical, microbiological, organoleptic test and nutritional analysis of the green chilli sauces.

FRL uses the latest technology to predict safety and shelf life models which indicate the effect of different parameters like pH, Aw, moisture content, temperature, antimicrobial ingredients on the shelf life. Final product was validated with samples of consumers and the client. Now the sauces were shelf-stable for 2 years.
