Sales worth Rs 80,000 in five days
With new and hygienic packing, world famous Kashmiri Wazwan made and
tinned by J and K State Agro Industries Development Corporation Ltd (JK
Agro) has witnessed sales worth Rs 80,000 in last five days.
JK Agro re-launched its wazwan outlets on Tuesday at three places in
the Valley to cater to the increasing demand from tourists and locals.
According to the JK Agro, these outlets were started in December last year but were later stopped due to the dearth of funds.
“We have re-launched Wazwan this holy month as we had received enough
demands from our customers. On the first day we made revenue of Rs 30000
which was more than our expectations,” Managing Director JK Agro Abdul
Majeed Bhat told Kashmir Reader.
He added that it has so far made sales worth Rs 70000 in five days and
on an average they witness a sale of 15000 daily at their three outlets.
In the new packing, one tin of Wazwan includes eight pieces of three
varieties: Rista, Lehvi Kabab and Gushtab with a validity of 12 months.
“We are registered with the Food Processing Ministry of India and our
product is different than others. In terms of quality or in terms of
taste it is all together different.” Bhat said.
He added that they have a famous Waza (master chefs) Ghulam Mohammad
Bandair who makes Wazwan, which they later sent to Khunmoh Plant where
they add preservatives and pack it.
He said that their wazwan is almost Rs 50 cheaper than private processors and restaurants.
With its three outlets in Srinagar at Tourist Receipt Centre, Lal Mandi
and Airport and two outlets in Jammu at Shastri Nagar and Katra the
department is now planning to increase the number of its outlets.
“There is an enormous demand for our product and we have given few
locations to the government and within a short time we will be receiving
green signal. We have also given proposal to the Estates and within
three days we would be having our outlet there as well,” Bhat said.
He added that other places like Hyderpora, Lalchowk and Boulevard have been located for new outlets. With new and hygienic packing, world famous Kashmiri Wazwan made and
