You travel around the world for days and return home after long tours. You tried and tested a variety of tasty food at different places and enjoyed it as well. Still Everyone craves for home food after returning home? .

All of us have experienced this urge for home food. Agree or not, home food is our need, not only for taste buds but also for our souls. Purnima Karhade from Dallas is satisfying this demand, through her venture – Soul Foods India LLC.

Soul Foods India is an authorized distributor of Soham Udyog for the Dallas and distributes its products across the US.

 

Soul Foods Products – 

Soul Foods India LLC is providing different food products commonly seen in Marathi houses throughout various parts of Maharashtra. May it be Solkadhi or Different kinds of flours, from Modaks to Upwas. Purnima and her husband felt the need for Maharashtrian food products in the Dallas part of the US. Karhade started her venture, Soul Foods India LLC just a year ago, precisely on Aug 15, 2020. They bring quality food items from India. These food items are widely used in all Marathi households.

Soul Foods Journey – 

The journey was not that simple. The main challenge was bringing fresh food from India and its shipping to the US. For this, Purnima is supported by her own husband, an experienced IT professional. A lot of this tedious task is handled by her husband and that’s without a doubt a huge support for Purnima.

 But, the biggest challenge was yet to come. Arriving during last year’s Diwali, a Covid challenge was mounting across the world. Many Diwali orders were placed and containers from India were not reached within time. Diwali was around the corner and Purnima had absolutely nothing to deliver to customers.

“It was the toughest situation for Soul Foods. People were calling us repeatedly and we were unable to serve them. The Supply Chain issue was out of our control. Even in these odd times, our customers supported us, believed in us. Somehow, products reached us on the exact Diwali day. We could deliver some and many went to the dustbin as we could not deliver,” Purnima recalls those days, as her emotions burst out.

Growth Story – 

But, testing time is always bound to pass. Indeed so with courageous people like the Karhade’s. With their consistent efforts, Soul Foods India is growing every day, reaching newer customers and winning their trust. Not only Marathi people, but other Indians are also registering their necessities. These homely products have now found their shelves in popular Supermarket chains like India Bazaar. Even the younger generations, born and brought up in the US, have developed a taste for Marathi products, and Soul Foods is providing them quality.

Various Oils

Big range, Good Service –

“Key to success is open communication with your customers. There may be some odds during the course, but if you are clear with your customers, win their trust and that makes many things simple. Transparency and honesty are the two most important values for us,” says Karhade while concluding.

With the dedication to work and quality service for customers, Soul Foods India LLC is marching ahead with leaps and bounds. No doubt, great success is around the corner !!
