Somnath Besan Industries

Somnath Besan Industries is our small setup over at Plot No. 82-1. We mostly deal with grinding chana dal into besan. It is a very straightforward business. You can usually hear the grinders from the road before you even see the gate. The whole place is usually covered in a thin layer of yellow flour dust. It is just part of the job. We don't have any big marketing plans or anything like that. We just focus on getting the flour ground and bagged up for the local markets. It’s a lot of lifting and moving heavy sacks around. Our building is just a simple structure that keeps the rain off the machines and the stock. We have been working at this plot for quite a while and we know the neighbors well. It’s a bit of a grind, literally, but it keeps us going. We don't have a fancy lobby for visitors. If someone comes by, they usually just talk to us at the main door while we are working. We don't use any complicated technology. It’s just the old-fashioned way of doing things because it works for us. Some days are longer than others, especially when the harvest comes in. We just keep the machines oiled and make sure the bags are filled properly. It is honest work and it is what we know how to do best. We aren't looking to change much.
