The whole idea is to find the alternative for the goods sold to us by the foreign companies and create Demand for the goods made in India 100% - Indian companies in the market thereby saving our Nation's Economy-- without compromising on the Quality of the product purchased... This in-turn will generate substantial employment and build stronger future generations
We never cared, and knew that a small band-aid from an Indian company creates employment for hundreds and the whole profit remains here itself.. Imagine our economy being flooded by mnc's right from a band aid, refreshments etc etc.. which having no technology to manufacture them.. If this continues, we have the risk of what countries like SA, USA had faced very recently
Our duty is to identify the 100% Indian product.. I'm sure that you enjoy using our own products and even take pride in using these swadeshi goods
Please read on and post ur suggestions, add to my list.. My aim is to create awareness and make people think of this when shopping out
Presently the FMCG market is dominated by foreign companies such as Unilever/Hindustan Lever, Procter &Gamble, ITC(Indian Tobacco Board-- subsidiary of ATC-American Tobacco Board).
The market is flooded by these giants selling our goods in the Names of our nation-- Hindustan Unilever, ITC(Indian Tobacco Board) , in guise of Hindustan, Indian tags attached to their commercial operations, leading to false pride in using these goods sold by these MNC's - while our home brands are not finding place.

ReplyDeleteDear all, this blog intent is to identify, make aware of the products in India whose
ReplyDelete> raw materials required are available in abundance within our reach,
> Skills required to produce these are available in abundance within our nation,
> which does not require any dependable technological assistance from fellow nations
there are some things we ought to depend on our neighbours in our day-to-day life; just similar way, our countries too inter-depend on each other.
There are no alternatives for some of the life-saving medicines/drugs, some goods such as mobiles, electronics etc. Hence we and other nations depend on each other. Make use of these.
There are some things available such as water, salt, packed wheat/atta, razors/blades which we use every day and need not over depend on these.
be proud to use our own self produced brands. encourage our own entrepreneurs, there by raising our nation's standards. this encourages global level-playing field for our enterepreneurs too in a big way
This does not mean we are completely against globalisation, or against other foreign players in India. We have to create favourable conditions to co-exist with every part in this world; and even make our mark and presence in other nations too
hence re-iterating here that we ought to co-exist in peaceful way
world is a global village and we are all caring to every living beign each other, every day. Help our nation sustain, grow and become an all-round self dependent nation. This in-turn makes us capable to help other fellow neighbours too.
have a good day everyday !!
