Cachar Native Joint Stock Co. Ltd.

Started out here at Vernerpur T.E. a long time ago. The weather in Cachar can be pretty tough, mostly just rain and heat, but it keeps the tea bushes growing well enough. We operate as the Cachar Native Joint Stock Co. Ltd. out of this post office area. It's not a fancy place by any means. Mostly, our days are spent checking on the fields and making sure the factory side of things is running like it should. The roads around here can get muddy during the monsoon, which makes transport a bit of a headache. We have a lot of local folks who have been working these rows for generations. It is a joint stock setup, so there are a few of us involved in keeping the wheels turning. We don't spend much time on fancy offices or desks. Most of the work happens outside or in the sheds where the leaves are drying. You can hear the machines humming from the main path if you walk by in the morning. People know where to find us. We just focus on the harvest and getting the tea ready for the market. It is a quiet kind of life, mostly routine and watching the weather. We try to keep things simple and just do the work that needs doing every day. It's just how things are done at Vernerpur.
