Tell us about your business?

I have started my own pickle brand by the name of ‘Panun Aachar’ which is purely home-made. I make different varieties of pickles and one among them is ‘Aloo Bukhara’ pickle which is mostly liked by every one. 

The idea for it came to me when I had randomly uploaded a picture of my  pickle in Yakjut group (Read about Yakjut). Many ladies liked it and wanted to order it. I did not want to disappoint  them, so I promised to deliver 6 orders. I made them and called up a local courier agency FastBeetle to deliver it for me. 

After that day, orders started coming every day. People even started inquiring about my pickle in local stores. I received a call from  Pick n Choose superstore inquiring about my pickle.  Many distributors called me that wanted to distribute my product.  There have been days when almost 30+ orders came. 

Now I have employed 10 girls, who come to my place and do the preparations with me.
