Monte Cones & Foods Ltd.

We’ve been set up at C-10 in the Uppal industrial area for a good number of years now. It’s a busy spot with trucks coming in and out all day. Most of the time, the air smells like sweet batter because of the cones we’re baking. It’s not a fancy place, just a workspace where we get things done. People often forget that behind every ice cream is a cone that someone had to make. We spend our days watching the machines spin and making sure the stacks don’t fall over. Sometimes it gets really hot in here, especially in the summer months when the ovens are running full tilt. The staff mostly comes from the nearby neighborhoods around Uppal. We know each other's families and what’s going on in the area. It’s more like a small community than a big company. We don’t have fancy meetings or big corporate boards. We just look at what needs to be baked and we get to it. Sometimes the machines act up and we have to fix them ourselves with whatever tools are handy. It’s honest work. We make food items too, not just the cones, so there is always something different happening on the floor. If you walk past our gate, you’ll probably hear the hum of the fans and the noise of the packaging lines. It’s just how things are here every day. We don’t try to be anything we aren’t. It’s just us making things for people to eat.
