Fresh Softdrinks

Fresh Softdrinks is located out in Changa village, which is part of the Nadiad Taluka. If you head towards the Shiv Mandir, you will find us pretty easily. We have a small setup here that we've been running for a few years. It’s mostly just a place where we store and sell different kinds of drinks to the locals. The building is made of basic brick and stays reasonably cool even when the sun is beating down on the village. We don't have a lot of fancy signs or lights outside. People just know we are here because of the stacks of crates by the door. On festival days near the Mandir, it gets incredibly busy and we can hardly keep up with the demand. My brother and I run the whole thing ourselves. We don't use any big marketing tricks. We just keep the fridge cold and make sure we have enough stock for the week. Sometimes the delivery truck can't make it down the narrow dirt path, so we have to go out and meet them with a trolley. It's a lot of physical work, lifting heavy cases and moving them around. We don't have a big office or anything like that. It’s just us doing what we can in our corner of Changa. Most of our customers are neighbors or people just passing through on their way to the temple.
