Hydro Food Products

Our setup is at 83/84 in Yusufi Colony, Valaperumpalam. It is a food production place, so the day starts while most people are still sleeping. We have to get the ingredients ready and start the processing early so the products can be shipped out. The kitchen area is always full of steam and different smells. It is a lot of work being on your feet all day, but we have a good rhythm going now. The colony is pretty crowded, so getting the delivery trucks in and out of the gates can be a real struggle sometimes. We have a few machines that help with the mixing and the packaging, but a lot of it is still done by the staff. We try to keep everything as neat as possible, but it gets hectic when there are large orders to finish. We don't spend any money on advertising; we just rely on people liking what we make. Most of the folks working here live nearby in Valaperumpalam. It’s a busy, noisy environment, and we usually go home feeling pretty tired. We aren't trying to be some huge company, just a local business making food. The days are long, but we’ve been doing this for a while and we know the routine inside and out. It’s a good way to earn a living in this part of town.
