Sri Manjunatha Rice Industries

You can find Sri Manjunatha Rice Industries at 12/2A on the Moodabidri - Karkala Road. We are situated in Harakere, which is a good spot for us since the trucks can get in and out easily. Rice is a big deal around here, and we take our part in it seriously. The mill is usually covered in a thin layer of rice dust, but that’s the sign of a place that stays working. We spend our days watching the husking and the sorting. It’s not easy work, and it gets quite loud when all the machinery is going at once. We’ve been at this for a long time now. The road outside has seen a lot of traffic over the years, but we stay focused on what’s inside the gates. Local farmers bring their paddy to us, and we turn it into something people can actually eat. We don't have any fancy mission statements or slogans. We just show up in the morning, check the equipment, and start the processing. Sometimes the power goes out and we have to wait, but that’s life in a rural area. We like the community here in Harakere. It’s a place where people still look each other in the eye. We’re just part of the landscape on the way to Karkala, doing our job day after day. It keeps us grounded and connected to the land.
