Azad Foods

Our place is at Plot No.48/1337 in the Azad Complex. We are right on Perumpotta Road in Elamakkara. It’s a decent sized spot where we handle all our food processing and packaging. I started this because I wanted to work for myself after years of working for other people. It’s not always easy. Some days we have issues with the machines or the suppliers don’t bring the right ingredients. But we just deal with it as it comes. We aren't a big factory with robots. We are just people working with our hands, packing stuff into bags and boxes. The complex can get quite crowded with all the other businesses around, especially during the middle of the day. We spend a lot of time checking the labels and making sure the weights are correct. It’s tedious work, but it has to be done right. My family helps out quite a bit during the busy seasons. We don’t spend money on fancy advertisements or shiny brochures. We just rely on the fact that we’ve been here in Elamakkara for a bit and people know our face. The Perumpotta Road area is quiet enough for us to get our work done without too many distractions. We keep the place as clean as we can, though with food, there’s always something to mop up. It’s just a regular local business trying to keep things moving day by day.
