Packing & Shipment

PACKING 

All of our authentic native products are safe and good to eat only because of its unique ingredients and the traditional cooking formula and method which is followed. Packing the products in the best possible way is our topmost priority.

We use recommended and healthy packaging materials to pack the products in order to ensure that you get it in the best consumable condition. A dense plastic box that is unbreakable, or a PP cover which is more than 50Microns, a tough carton sleeve, a 3ply shipper carton and bubble sheets to cover the empty space, is what we use. These materials are carefully selected and are made sure that they are as per the guidelines of the food regulatory authorities of Tamil Nadu.

We know that the packing has to be safe and secure and hence our packaging team follows a process and double checks the package before it leaves for delivery.
