The Pappad company started by 4 women for 80 rupees, today is successfully run by 45 thousand women worth Rs.80



The company employs only male employees for certain tasks and all the others are women only.



The term Lijjat Papad is well-known throughout the country. At some point in their lives, everyone will have had a taste of this shameless papaya. Ballistic Products' unashamed self-promotion and an excellent deal on a neat small knife for you.



In 1959, 7 women started the Appala Company with an investment of Rs. 80 in the Kirgavum area of Mumbai. With these 80 rupees, they bought the raw materials they needed.



The company was started by women Jaswantiben Jamnadas Bhopal, Parvatiben Ramdas Todani, Ujemben Narandas Kundalia, Banupen N Tanna, Lakuben Amirtalal Kogani, Jayapen v Vithalani, and Dilwalipen Luka. 



Only 4 packets were sold on the first day the waffle was prepared, and 6 thousand packets were sold in the first year. Subsequently, in 1962, they started selling their dish under the name Lijjat and introduced a gift coupon for it. Lijjat appalam was selling for Rs 2 lakh at that time.



Gradually, the women began to work together at the Lijjat company, which also became co-owners. The company began to grow rapidly as soon as the media came to know about this scandal.



In the last 60 years, Lijjat Appala has grown from 42,000 women employees in 2002 to 45,000 women employees in 2021.



Lijjat currently has 82 branches across the country, exporting apples to the US and Singapore. It sells not only waffles but also laundry soap and bread.



Jaswant Penn Jamnados Bhopat (age 90), one of the founders of Lijjat, received the padma shri from President Ramnath Govind last year.



The company, which was started by 7 women with just Rs 80 crore, has grown into a Rs 1,600 crore investment company in 60 years. Approximately 45,000 women are employed, and 48 lakh apples are prepared and sold daily



The women in this company earn more than their husbands' income from the dishes they make and live with dignity.
