Negi Red Chilli Spices (Opc) Private Limited

You can find us at House Number 57 in Shiv Nagar. It is Prem Singh Negi’s place, and we have been operating out of here for a while now in Dehradun. The smell of red chillies is pretty much everywhere once you get close to the door. It gets into your clothes and makes you sneeze if you aren't used to it. We spend most of the day sorting through the dried peppers and making sure the spice mixes are right. It is a small operation, just an OPC, so it is mostly family and a couple of helpers doing the heavy lifting. The Shiv Nagar area is a regular residential neighborhood, so we try not to make too much noise early in the morning. We don't have a big factory or automated lines; it is mostly done by hand and with some basic grinders. It is hard work and the heat from the chillies can really get to your skin after a few hours of packing. We just pack everything into bags and get them ready for whoever needs them. There isn't any fancy branding or big slogans here. We just know how to handle the spices and we keep at it until the orders are filled. Most of our day is just spent weighing things out and sealing the packets. It’s a simple life and it keeps us busy enough throughout the year.
