Pallickal Food Products

We are over in Ayyampuzha, right at the Kollankodu area. It’s mostly just us working with food products day in and day out. Some days the rain makes it hard to move things around, but we get by. The building isn't anything special, just a place where we get the work done. People know where we are because we’ve been here in this part of Ayyampuzha for a bit. We wake up early to start on the batches. There is a lot of cleaning to do first. It’s a lot of manual work, really. My cousin helps out sometimes when it gets busy. We don't have a big office or anything like that. Just the space where the food gets prepared and packed. Sometimes the power goes out and we just sit outside for a bit until it comes back. It's quiet enough around here except for when the trucks come by to pick up stuff. We try to keep things organized but sometimes the crates pile up in the corner. If you walk down the road in Kollankodu, you’ll see the sign for Pallickal Food Products. It’s a bit faded now. We spend most of our time making sure everything is sealed up right. It’s not fancy work, but it fills the day. We have some basic machines that make a lot of noise. You get used to it after a while. Most of the folks working here live nearby. It's a simple operation and we just keep it moving.
