Buddana Soft Drinks & Bevarages

Our place is located in Malladagudda, which is part of Manvi Taluk. If you’re driving on the Lingsugur Main Road, we’re not hard to spot. We started Buddana Soft Drinks & Bevarages because we saw a need for local drink options that didn't cost a fortune. It’s a small-scale operation, really. We have a couple of bottling lines and a small warehouse for storage. Most of the time, it’s just a lot of cleaning and making sure the bottles are filled and capped correctly. We aren’t a big multi-national company with glass offices in the city. We’re right here in the rural area, dealing with the same dusty roads and power cuts as everyone else in the village. Sometimes the water supply is a bit of a struggle, but we have our ways of managing the situation. The people working here are mostly locals from around the Taluk. They know the work and they do it well. We don’t have a HR department or anything complicated. If there’s a problem, we just talk it out in the yard during the break. We make soft drinks that people in this district seem to enjoy. It’s basic, honest work. There isn’t much more to say than that. We wake up early, get the machines started, and try to finish the day's batch before it gets too late in the evening. It’s a busy life but it keeps us grounded.
