Holkar Spices (Opc) Private Limited

We’re tucked away behind the Sarrafa Girls School in Scheme 71. Our place is number 49. It’s a bit of a quiet spot until we start grinding the spices. Then, you can smell us from a block away. We spend our time with bags of turmeric, chili, and cumin. The air in the workshop is always a bit spicy, which makes everyone sneeze if they aren’t used to it. We handle everything ourselves, from cleaning the raw spices to packing them up. It’s dusty work and can be pretty tiring. We aren't a big factory with robots. It’s just us using our hands and some old machines. Indore is famous for its food, and we like to think we play a small part in that by providing the basics. Being in the 452009 area is handy because we’re close to everything but still have our own space. We don’t have a flashy storefront or anything like that. If you come by, you’ll just see us working. Sometimes the spice mixes don’t come out exactly the same every time, but that’s because we do it in small batches. We just try to keep things honest and simple. There’s a lot of history with spices in Madhya Pradesh, and we’re just continuing that in our own small way. It’s what we do, day in and day out, at number 49. It's a lot of hard work, but we like it.
