  • QSR Chain Ajay’s Opens 95th Outlet

    Starting from a single outlet in Navsari city in 2014, the chain has expanded at an incredible pace in the last year and a half

    Surat (Gujarat) [India], December 01: Ajay’s Takeaway Food, a fast-growing chain of trusted Quick Service Restaurants (QSR) committed to serving affordable but high-quality food, has reached a major milestone in its unbelievable growth journey.

    From its first outlet in August 2014, Ajay’s has opened its 95th outlet at Piplod, Surat, this month. What makes the journey all the more incredible is that Ajay’s has its roots in Navsari, a small city in South Gujarat.

    The journey of Ajay’s, however, began in 1991 at Pune, when Manjulaben decided to help her husband Vasantbhai to make ends meet for the Family. The couple started a household mess with just 2 bachelors having evening meals. In no time, they were swarmed with requests from students, bachelors, techies, and other clients to have their meals. Their sons Jay and Ajay started to help in the home operated venture.

    From a mess operated in a 1 BHK flat, the young sibling Ajay’s took the eatery to a rented place with over 100 meals served daily. Ajay took pride in his work, and his inclination to serve good food to many took him to start various food ventures. In 2013, the elder sibling, Jay, who had spent over 12 years in the corporate world, joined Ajay to take it to new heights.

    Even though the food business in Pune was doing well, the family decided to shift to Navsari, their native place, in 2012. The first restaurant in Navsari that started in December 2012 was Chowpati Fast Food, and not Ajay’s Takeaway Food. Within 6 months, they started another outlet of Chowpati Fast Food, and in next 6 months, it was a super failure. It was the time to introspect and it was the time when Ajay’s Takeaway Food, as we know it today, was born in August 2014 with the first outlet in Navsari. The range of burgers, pizzas, and coffees the outlet sold became hugely popular among customers. The number of Ajay’s Takeaway Food outlets soon grew to three, and the first franchisee outlet of Ajay’s was opened in Surat in 2016.

    By March 2020, the number of Ajay’s outlets crossed 21, but the Covid-19 pandemic did him them severely. From 21 outlets in March 20, the pandemic took away 8 outlets. With 13 outlets in June 20, they decided to make a drastic change in the way they operated and appointed Franchise. The franchise model was revised, franchise fees were abolished, even royalty was now not charged. Operations at outlets were more standardised, and technology was now included to have smooth operations. They completely focused on how to make the franchise more profitable.

    The number of outlets is now about to cross the century mark. Today, Ajay’s outlets are present in nearly all places in Navsari, Surat, Valsad, Bharuch, and other places in the south Gujarat region. With the trusted franchise model, they also entered the Central Gujarat territory in August 2021. As on 31st October 21, the Vadodara Territory has 14 operational outlets in just 3 months.

    “When we started the first outlet in Navsari in 2014, we had not imagined we would have anywhere around 100 outlets in a few years. Our focus on taste, quality, affordability, accessibility and our commitment to serving food that is good has helped us reach this milestone. We are thankful to our customers for their love and unwavering support over the years,” said Jai Solanki, Co-founder, Ajay’s Takeaway Food.

    Ajay’s has so far concentrated on expanding in South Gujarat and Central Gujarat areas, but the firm has set its sights on expanding to more cities going ahead. They prime focus is on Tier 2, Tier 3 and below towns.

    “We have a strong presence in south Gujarat now, and our focus continues on ensuring the highest quality food products are served to customers. But we want to reach to masses in every corner of the country, and hence we want to be present at more cities within and outside Gujarat in the future. Looking back at the journey, we firmly believe this is just the beginning for Ajay’s,” said Ajay Solanki, Co-founder, Ajay’s Takeaway Food.

  • From Vedas was named Most Prominent Brand in Hyderabad – 2021 by Business Mint in the Organic Category

    For unique and successful practices in the field of organic products, Business Mint awarded Vedashree, founder of From Vedas, the Most Prominent Brand in Hyderabad – 2021, Organic Category

    New Delhi (India), December 01: We’re all spending more time at home these days, so we’re becoming more selective about the cleaning products we use. When possible, we avoid using harsh cleaning chemicals like bleach and keep a close watch on the components in our household products. Instead, we use cleaning solutions that are manufactured with sustainable manufacturing techniques that are naturally sourced, non-toxic, and biodegradable. Vedashree is on a mission to build organic products and an end-customer ecosystem. Her company, From Vedas, is the first step in realizing this dream.

    Ayurveda and a wide range of natural medicines can be found in India. The Indian market has been inundated with organic companies over the years, as discriminating buyers want natural goods in their cosmetics and skincare routines. Unlike other enterprises, the organic beauty industry necessitates expertise and experience. Because one is working with something as “valuable as people’s skin,” Vedashree, Founder of From Vedas, believes it is more than just making items. “You must conduct significant research and possess in-depth knowledge of each ingredient, each product you wish to create, why you wish to create them, and how you believe they will benefit others.”

    Years of idea generation, training, and experimenting went into this. We got a shout-out from our own Prime Minister, “Athmanirbar India,” just as things started to fall into place. It was only a matter of time. Vedas products are created entirely of organic oils, vegetable-derived colors, and all-natural perfumes. Without compromising on quality, each of the ingredients is created or purchased from the most reliable sources.

    The Vedas, a tremendous collection of information from their forefathers, are a great source of inspiration for the firm. Activated charcoal has been used as a cleaning agent since ancient times, according to them. Vedas takes great satisfaction in producing activated charcoal solely from coconut shells, which is a labor of love for both people and the environment. Another historical technique is the use of natural colors originating from plant sources. The packaging is biodegradable to a considerable extent. Every part of From Vedas product reflects the desire.

    From the Vedas, products that you can trust reintroduce a sense of belonging. Their goal is to encourage farmers to grow organically and to urge customers to do so as well.

    “If you claim to be organic, take the effort to acquire organic products,” adds Vedashree, founder of From Vedas. Do not use it just as a marketing claim, or get one or two organic ingredients and dilute with non-organic/synthetic ingredients.”

    Business Mint Nationwide Awards nominated Vedashree for Most Prominent Brand in Hyderabad – 2021, Organic Category, in recognition of her efforts. Vedashree was chosen for this role due to her eco-friendly, safe-for-hands, and simple-to-use company methods. Leading a company to success is a difficult task, and she is eager to demonstrate her dedication, knowledge, and pure hard work.

  • From juggling in menial jobs to creating a whopping name in the US staffing

    November 30: Not that Typical HR, Tarun Sharma, Is gaining quite some good audience and attraction in the US Staffing and Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) Industry. With his great interest in hardwork, he was never afraid to put that extra effort in what he did, and that attitude took him to some great positions in life.

    In a constant struggle between proving himself better and trying on different strategies, Tarun never had it easy in life. He was always into stepping on the unknown path which came with its own risks. Though RPO is a new segment, but Tarun recognised the potential in this industry and jumped in with all his might. Not just the huge firms but startups and smaller companies are recognizing its perks day by day. They even give a competitive edge to the recruitment process by hunting best talents. RPO services are flexible and a scalable solution specially for seasonal company hiring.

    Tarun is an expert in analysing and evaluating strategies of recruitment process for effective results. RPO is a modern way to avail staffing in the industry. With extending their services beyond company recruitment, Tarun helps in high quality talent acquisition. “Work Hard and live life positively” is his ultimate mantra to existence. This warrior mindset took him beyond those hurdles at ease.

    Tarun had no plans of running a business empire in his future. Neither those who were closer to him belived so. Being from a stage where in he wasn’t able to clear his senior secondary board exams in one attempt, he always received those judgemental eyes. With no other option, he ended up paying 600 bucks to a fake job consultant to working with brands like American Express, and Teleperformance.

    He certainly came a long way past those traumatizing days. From juggling between menial jobs to now running his own show and becoming a big name in the US Staffing industry. The best RPO service provider knows the work culture very well and hence gives effortless solutions. Tarun is well aware of these facts and helps in attracting the right talent at the right time. Failure often turns out to be stepping stones in life is what believed and showcased by the guy rather then treating it as a depressing phase of life.

    He often prefers to sit amongst the grown ones and learn from their experiences. An experienced adult can give you the life lessons of million bucks over a coffee. Treating his father (Sunil Kumar Sharma) as an idol for himself, Tarun learnt alot at his home. While coming from Air Force background and serving the nation for good long 22 years, his father has passed on some ageless tutoring.

    Tarun has been into some latest and smarter trends in the corporate world. With onboarding 500+ support and leadership profiles without hiring any professional services. Being famous for his Talent Acquisition skills, he has been supporting Recruitments and Business Development teams of various established best RPOs  in the industry. Tarun’s LinkedIn profile is itself a great platform for talented candidates. He has hired and interacted with hidden gems in corporate world with just a LinkedIn profile.

    He is into creating solutions instead of mingling in problems. Tarun has already created and executed some bombarding strategies to improve organisational outcomes. He believes that supporting one another and exchanging knowledge can take someone to unfeasible success.

  • Skin Care Market in India to Grow Significantly In Next 5 Years, Says Eunike Founder Aryaman Thakur

    November 27: The skin care products market was valued at INR 129.76 billion in 2020, and it is predicted to increase at an annual pace of 8.22 per cent between 2021 and 2025, reaching INR 191.09 billion by 2025.

    In India, the skin care products market is divided into four categories: face, body, sun, and other skin care products. Face care products dominated the market in terms of revenue, accounting for 57.22% of the market in 2020. During the period 2021–2025, the other skin care products category, which includes depilatory products for the face and body, is predicted to develop at the quickest CAGR of 10.13 per cent.

    Aryaman Thakur, Founder of Eunike said, “A rise in the incidence of skin diseases, as well as improved public awareness about skin health, are two key drivers propelling market expansion. Furthermore, the industry is being driven by simple access to these products via company websites and online channels, as well as doorstep delivery. However, the availability of low cost and cheap counterfeit products limit its growth.”

    Continuing further, “My younger brother and Me, Tushar Thakur, founded Eunike with a firm decision to develop luxury and premium skin care products by merging the knowledge of nature and the methods of science. Our skincare range is naturally derived as we use products like coffee, coconut, apple cider vinegar which has several skin benefits in one.” He added.

    The nationwide lockdown imposed in the aftermath of the pandemic had a significant influence on the market’s supply chain and manufacturing activity. Due to the shutdown of stores, supermarkets, parlours, and salons, demand for skin care products dropped dramatically during the lockdown. However, after the initial phase of the lockdown was lifted, sales of home skin care kits increased. As skin care distribution channels such as retailers, spas, parlours, and salons reopened, the market gradually stabilised.

  • Pioneers in Sustainability: Aluminium Paving the Way for the Metal Industry

    The article is provided by Mr. Deepak Mathur, Sr. Vice President, Global Marketing and Sales at Jindal Aluminium Limited

    November 26: The world is quickly moving towards reducing its carbon footprint by cutting emissions and saving the environment from further degradation. In this path that leads us to a sustainable future, there is one metal that has proven itself to be better than the rest when it comes to being environmentally friendly.

    In any argument on the most sustainable building material in the world, Aluminium is an easy winner. It is because of its highly recyclable attributes and the fact that it does not lose any of its properties in the process. Once put in use, it can be recycled again and again without an iota of quality compromise. One cannot also ignore that 75 per cent of all Aluminum ever produced is still in use. Arguments like these allow Aluminium to score handsomely over other metals when it comes to sustainability.

    Meeting Common Goals

    Offering the smallest of carbon footprints among competition puts Aluminium-in-use in a better position in the race to sustainability. Given that it can be recycled infinitely and create the same or new product, Aluminium is the most recyclable industrial material.

    Today, the Aluminium industry as a whole is adopting practices that make it a leader among green metals. In the downstream Aluminium segment, sustainable practices are being used for decades. Solar and wind energy are used to fuel what is traditionally powered by electricity generated from burning coal, using diesel, and others. The manufacturing process, too, has been redefined with plant waste mitigation measures and automation taking centre stage. These steps have enhanced the capability of Aluminium as a metal towards promoting a sustainable future and lowering carbon footprint through its products.

    Offering Quality Products 

    Aluminium-in-use stands a better choice among metals to be an ambassador for sustainability also because of the intrinsic qualities. From being soft and malleable to be low weight, Aluminum has a varied application in today’s world.

    The density of Aluminium is approximately one-third of the thickness of steel, which is why Aluminium is a light metal. It offers low density because of its lower atomic weight when compared to other metals. Aluminium offers a variety of quality products that include a range comprising wrapping foils, kitchen utensils, window frames, airplane parts, and EVs. All thanks to the particular properties this green metal offers. Given these unique properties, Aluminium can prove to be one of the most rigid metals on earth. Today, Aluminium alloys are used across varied applications where strength and durability are needed.

    Creating Sustainability

    Aluminium has a bright future as a metal that will help achieve our sustainability targets balancing industrial growth and the environment. Across industries, there is a constant search for greener alternatives, alternatives that will bring about a change with the implementation of sustainable business models.

    Aluminium is the third most abundant material on earth after oxygen and silicon, making up 8% of the earth’s crust. It is among the few raw materials among metals that support clean economic growth and employment.

    Perfection Is a Myth

    Entrepreneurs obsess over perfection too much. They think more, do less. Instead, it’s time to focus on progress instead of perfection. But most entrepreneurs are constantly fire-fighting where they get so ‘busy’ with the operational tasks that they move away from their true vision.

    A dream every entrepreneur has is that his venture should generate enormous wealth, and eventually self sustain. Small to big, most entrepreneurs are struggling for survival and are not even playing the game of growth because their business is solely dependent on them. They are the driving force behind every single function. Be it marketing, sales, operations, accounts, or HR; an entrepreneur is involved in everything, which is what kills the growth of the business.

    Fruits or Roots

    Entrepreneurs are unhappy about the fruits of their business but rarely work on the root of the problem. Ameet says that there are 2 root areas to be focused upon which will resolve this growth challenge

    1. Discover Business Warrior Mindset
    2. Learn to create a system driven business model

    Ameet Parekh, 1 of India’s leading business coaches, member of the International Coach Federation & Certified Coaches Alliance, has been working with entrepreneurs across India to transform their businesses. He believes that business performance acceleration can be easily achieved if entrepreneurs create a warrior mindset, and in his amazon best seller book “Your Mind is Your Enemy”, Ameet shares how exactly to build Super Performer Mindset.

    Turnaround Specialist

    Ameet has taken his experiences of several years and created a simple system that will help Entrepreneurs to move from Existing to Excelling in the world of business. Ameet says that it is simple but not easy to Build to Last; this requires acquiring knowledge of creating business systems, processes and powerful strategies.

    Contrary to popular belief, Ameet says that in any business, the eventual role of an entrepreneur is to do nothing, but he sees entrepreneurs are doing everything. They fail to reduce the business dependency on themselves. If all business functions are dependent on one person, growth is compromised. Entrepreneurs often choose a self-destructive path of being a firefighter and crisis solver in their business, thus causing them to be completely ineffective in being Business Leader. Ameet Parekh teaches Business owners to become business LEADERS helping them to build a sustainable business by teaching them best practices and systems which work to produce results.
