Joys Cardamom Plantations Private Limited

Joys Cardamom Plantations Private Limited is mostly run from a flat, Flat No. Fjewel Sonata Melody in Muttambalam to be exact. It might seem a bit weird to have a plantation company based in a residential flat, but Joy Joseph found it was the best way to keep the paperwork in order. The actual growing happens far away on the hillsides where the air is cooler. We spend a lot of our time going back and forth between the quiet of the office and the noise of the plantation. Cardamom is a sensitive thing to grow, you have to watch the rain and the shade all the time or the crop just fails. Here at the Muttambalam address, we mostly deal with the buyers and the daily logs. It’s not a big corporate setup with receptionists and coffee machines. It is just a few desks and a lot of phone calls. Sometimes the place gets a bit crowded when people come by to talk business. We aren't trying to be some massive global brand, we just want to sell good cardamom and keep the plantation running year after year. The work is hard and sometimes the prices aren't what we want, but we just keep at it. Joy has been in this business for years, so we just follow his lead and do the work that needs doing every day. It is a long process from the field to the flat, but we make it work somehow for everyone involved.
