Business economics - Industrial Management

Quick food styles are catching up fast because of a larger number of working couples, domestic fuel crisis, non-availability of reliable domestic servants and breaking-up of joint family system. Neither time nor patience to prepare the ingredients and wholesome food in the house itself, the high price of ingredients and ready-mix are also a significant factor responsible for the spectacular increase in the demand for processed spices products. The processed spices products industry could increase the value of production considerably through the introduction of new variants and hence diversification has also a direct bearing on the product growth.
