Discussing Food Businesses with Small Food Business Owners
Small businesses, formal and informal, contribute nearly a fifth of the total food product manufacturing output, according to a report by the MSME Ministry. Our city areas are comprised of small food businesses, including canteens, poli-bhaji shops, home-food snacks and tiffin businesses, and local food stalls. A major hit of the pandemic was taken by many small food businesses with many challenges ranging from shortage and added costs of raw materials, the need to quickly grasp technology and social media marketing, retention of employees and enhancing their hygiene measures.
