It undertakes development of industrial estates to nurture industrialization in the state. [[Gopala Pillai|Dr. G. C. Gopala Pillai]], the former CMD of FACT, Ernakulam was at its helm for the first 12 years and was instrumental in the growth of KINFRA as an industrial facilitator in the state of Kerala.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite news|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120319050847/http://www.flonnet.com/fl2206/stories/20050325001610000.htm|archivedate=March 19, 2012 |url=http://www.flonnet.com/fl2206/stories/20050325001610000.htm|title= Enviable record in kick-starting growth |last= PARTHASARATHY |first=ANAND |date=March 12, 2005|work=Frontline|publisher=Volume 22 - Issue 06 |accessdate=9 January 2010}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> It is now led by S. Ramnath, a protégé of Dr. Pillai.<br /> <br /> KINFRA plans to set up an industrial park, Kera Park, at [[Kodakara]] in [[Thrissur district]]. Land acquisition is under way, and the company is awaiting clearances.&lt;ref&gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.exchange4projects.com/MISC/kinfra-to-set-up-industrial-park |title=Exchange for Projects :: Kinfra to set up industrial park |publisher=Exchange4projects.com |date=2009-02-17 |accessdate=2010-01-09 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090219223034/http://www.exchange4projects.com/MISC/kinfra-to-set-up-industrial-park |archivedate=2009-02-19 }}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> Since its inception, KINFRA has mainly identified itself with land acquisition and development of industrial infrastructure in the form of parks, townships and zones. With the objective of boosting industrial growth, KINFRA has promoted the concept of theme parks, which have been set up for the exclusive growth and development of chosen and specified industrial sectors. Some of the theme parks already implemented by KINFRA include [[food processing]] parks, an apparel park, a film and video park, an export promotion industrial park, an information technology and electronics park as well as a herbal and [[ayurveda]] park.<br /> <br /> The government has given special emphasis to promotion of the food processing industry due to the enormous development potential in the sector. In line with this policy, two food processing parks have already been set up by KINFRA, one at [[Kakkanchery]] in [[Malappuram district]] and the other at [[Mazhuvannur]] in [[Ernakulam district]]. A third food park, on about {{convert|85|acre}} of land at [[Adoor]] in [[Pathanamthitta district]], is under implementation. KINFRA also has plans to develop a spices park at [[Idukki district|Idukki]] for the processing of spices.<br /> <br /> Besides these, KINFRA has also set up small industries parks under the Integrated Infrastructure Development Scheme of the Government of India, catering exclusively to small scale industrial units in growing sectors in the state. Such small industries parks have been set up by KINFRA at [[Thiruvananthapuram district|Thiruvananthapuram]], [[Ernakulam district|Ernakulam]], [[Thrissur district|Thrissur]], [[Wayanad district|Wayanad]] and [[Kasaragod district|Kasaragod districts]]. Another park of its kind is being developed by KINFRA at [[Kunnamthanam]] in [[Pathanamthitta district]].<br /> <br /> == Website ==<br /> http://kinfra.org/<br /> <br /> == KINFRA Parks ==<br /> <br /> === [[Thiruvananthapuram district|Thiruvananthapuram]] ===<br /> <br /> * [[Kinfra Film and Video Park|KINFRA Film and Video Park]], Kazhakkoottam<br /> * KINFRA Apparel Park, Menamkulam<br /> * KINFRA Global Ayurveda Village, Thonnakkal<br /> <br /> === [[Kollam district|Kollam]] ===<br /> <br /> * KINFRA Industrial Park, Piravanthoor<br /> <br /> === [[Pathanamthitta district|Pathanamthitta]] ===<br /> <br /> * KINFRA Industrial Park, Adoor<br /> * KINFRA Industrial Park, Kunnamthanam<br /> <br /> === [[Alappuzha district|Alappuzha]] ===<br /> <br /> * Seafood Park India Limited (Joint venture), Aroor<br /> <br /> === [[Kottayam district|Kottayam]] ===<br /> <br /> * No footprint as of now, need to have proposals &amp; projects<br /> <br /> === [[Idukki district|Idukki]] ===<br /> <br /> * No footprint as of now, need to have proposals &amp; projects<br /> <br /> === [[Ernakulam district|Ernakulam]] ===<br /> <br /> * Export Promotion Industrial Park, Kakkanad<br /> * Hi-Tech Park, Kalamassery<br /> * Industrial Park, Mazhuvannur<br /> * Rubber Park (Joint venture), Irapuram<br /> <br /> === [[Thrissur district|Thrissur]] ===<br /> <br /> * Industrial Park, Koratty<br /> <br /> === [[Palakkad district|Palakkad]] ===<br /> <br /> * Defense Park, Ottappalam<br /> * Industrial Park, Ottappalam<br /> * Mega Food Park, Kanjikode<br /> * Integrated Industrial &amp; Textile Park, Kanjikode<br /> * WISE Park (Joint venture), Kanjikode<br /> * BEML Limited<br /> <br /> === [[Malappuram district|Malappuram]] ===<br /> <br /> * Techno-Industrial Park, Kakkancherry<br /> <br /> === [[Kozhikode district|Kozhikode]] ===<br /> <br /> * No footprint as of now, need to have proposals &amp; projects<br /> <br /> === [[Wayanad district|Wayanad]] ===<br /> <br /> * Industrial Park, Kalpetta<br /> <br /> === [[Kannur]] ===<br /> <br /> * Textile Center, Taliparamba<br /> * Industrial Park, Thalassery<br /> * Indian Coast Guard Academy, Azhikkal<br /> * Industrial Park, Mattannur<br /> * Industrial Growth Centre, Kuthuparamba<br /> <br /> === [[Kasaragod district|Kasaragod]] ===<br /> <br /> * Industrial Park, Seethangoli<br /> * Hindustan Aeronautics Limited<br /> <br /> ==References==<br /> {{Reflist}}<br /> <br /> ==External links==<br /> *[http://www.bpe.kerala.gov.in/pages/BPE%20Doc/11.pdf Report from 2005 (pdf)]<br /> <br /> {{Public Sector Undertakings in Kerala}}<br /> <br /> <br /> {{authority control}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Economy of Kerala]]<br /> [[Category:State agencies of Kerala]]<br /> [[Category:Infrastructure in India]]<br /> [[Category:State industrial development corporations of India]]<br /> [[Category:Government agencies with year of establishment missing]]</div>
