Uddmalpet's inspiration

In 2013, Sindhu registered a company called Evergreen Enterprise. Sindhu says the inspiration to change the family business came from the book 'The Magic of Thinking Big'

Sindhu was born into a middle class family in a village near Polachi in Ko Imbatur district. The parents were teachers in a government school. Most of the people in Pollachi were involved in the coconut and copra business. After studying in Tamil medium till 12th standard, B.Tech in Information Technology from Mahalingam Engineering College, Polachi. Did. In 2006, at the age of 23, he enrolled at Warwick Business School in England, where he earned an MBA in Information Systems and Management. Did. Worked as a waitress in a restaurant from 6:30 pm to 11:30 pm after college time. He then worked at Axa Life Insurance and a supermarket in London. There he went from sales executive to assistant manager.

After completing his studies in London, he returned to India in 2006. She got married to Arun from Sindhu in 2012. Living in a joint family, Arun's family ran a copra business. They bought coconuts from farmers in and around their village, made coppers from laborers and sold them in the local market. Indus's father-in-law V. While Ramanujam and his mother-in-law R. Rajve took care of the land, Arun's uncle Gopalakrishnan was in charge of the business. Happily, it was Sindhu's mother-in-law who took care of the house and Sindhu's six-month-old daughter and encouraged her to join the business.

Arun and Sindhu thought of developing a business. Until now, the coconut business was run only with the reputation and goodwill of the family. In 2012, Sindhu registered a company under the name Evergreen Enterprise. Sindhu says that the inspiration for change in the family business came from the book 'The Magic of Thinking Big'.

Arun's family is a leading FMCG. Brand used to do business with Marico, but for a few years Arun ran an iron scrap business, so there was no contact. Sindhu contacted Marico again in 2013, but Marico started buying coconuts instead of copra. So started a coconut business with him. In 2016, the couple did a one-year course in Bangalore to further develop their business. For that they used to go to Bangalore every weekend.

During this course, Sindhu thought that she should start her own business and thus started cold-pressed oil brand presses in 2016 in Udumalpet village in Tirupur district of Tamil Nadu. This is a partnership firm that sells copra, coconut, coconut shells, bhusu and coconut, peanut and sesame oil. He got Rs 12 lakh from his well-wishers and Rs 8 lakh by pledging Sindhu jewelery, out of which a cold processed oil production unit could be set up at Modakkupatti. Sindhu noticed that the taste of cooking that comes in this oil does not come in refined oil. If the production of this oil also provides employment to local women, they will not leave the village and go to the city. Many people in the area sell such oil, so there were many challenges to its success.

The business, which had a turnover of Rs 10 lakh in 2014, has today reached a turnover of Rs 6 crore. Sindhu considers her daughter Laya as her 'driving force'. He wants to teach his daughter that a woman can do anything. Even a village child will be inspired to see him and will be happy if he achieves some success in life, because there is no special role model for him in the village. So he decided that whatever happened, he would have to stay in Uddmalpet.

Never leave it and go to live in a big city. Today it sells its products in Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, Bhopal and Haryana. Exports it to Qatar. It is in talks with customers in Malaysia and the UK. His dream is to collaborate with one lakh micro-entrepreneurs.
