M y father is a tailoring teacher and mother is a homemaker. I finished my schooling in 2014. Right from my childhood, my passion was to start a business of my own. After completing board examinations, I started delivering water cans to the houses in my locality. Meanwhile, I joined BCom in a private college in Meenambakkam and still continued to deliver water cans part-time. After finishing college, I got a job as a management employee in a private company in Chennai. But I did not forget my dream. I started to think of starting my own distribution agency. Last year, I opened my own distribution agency, Lead Marketing and Distribution Centre (LMDC). I supply biscuits, soaps, other food and consumer products to many places across Chennai and currently, my company is worth more than Rs 10 lakh. I am proud that am the youngest distributor in south Chennai. I distribute only those goods that are good and trusted. I prefer providing products which do not harm the health of consumers. As there are many other products available in the market, my goal is to make people buy quality goods. I want people to stop buying the products influenced by advertisements.
