Sree Devi Foods

You can find Sree Devi Foods right near Newton School in Vivekananda Nagar. Borabanda is a crowded area, but we’ve found our little corner here. We do all our food preparation in this building. It’s not a large factory, just a place where we can get the work done. Most of us who work here live nearby, so we just walk to work. We started this because there was a need for local food products that aren't made by those big companies. We keep things basic. No fancy packaging or expensive ads. We just make the items and put them in bags. The school nearby means there’s always kids and parents around, which makes the area feel lively. Sometimes we have to move our supplies through the crowd, which can be a bit of a challenge. We don't mind. We’ve been here long enough that everyone knows what we’re doing. We aren't trying to be the biggest business in Borabanda. We just want to do a decent job every day. The kitchen gets busy, especially when we have a big order to finish. We all pitch in, even if it's not our usual job. The rainy season is the toughest because the narrow streets in Borabanda get muddy, making it hard to move the goods. We just put on our boots and keep going. Inside, we have some old metal shelves that hold all our ingredients. They aren't pretty, but they do the job. We don't have any experts telling us how to grow. We just listen to what the customers say.
