Life Skills Learned

How to survive and get ahead in today’s workplace

We don’t teach or simply train our people. More than anything we instil confidence in them.

We inspire them to pursue a dream. And we put them in tough situations. So they learn how to keep their cool and get the job done.

They cooperate with their colleagues and communicate effectively with our clients.

Marmas use fruits, vegetables and herbs from the forest or from their small garden farms. Some of these are very rare.
