Sumati Guar Gum Mill

E-374 in M. I. A. Basni Phase II is where we spend our days. Jodhpur is famous for many things, but here in the industrial area, it’s all about the guar gum. The mill is a busy place with a lot of dust from the seeds being processed. You can hear the grinders going from the street. It’s a bit loud and the air gets thick, but that’s the nature of the mill. We don't have a polished showroom. It’s a workspace through and through. We work with the raw materials, moving heavy bags and checking the quality of the powder. Most of us have been working in Basni for years, so we’re used to the noise and the heat. It’s a local operation, and we don't have any interest in sounding like a big international corporation. We just know how to run the mill. We see the same faces every day, the truck drivers and the guys from the other mills in Phase II. We have our lunch together in the shade when the sun is too high. It’s honest, hard work that leaves you tired at the end of the shift. We aren't here to give sales pitches. We just process the guar gum and get it ready for the next step. It’s what we know how to do best.
