India is witnessing a brand new generation of start-ups where these small enterprises are making their presence felt not just in the domestic sphere but also on a global level. The recent upsurge in the country's ecosystem can be administered to the latest initiatives and the boost up in economic scale strategies taken widely by the Indian Government that have brought up a new investment grid and scheme for startups and budding entrepreneurs. This current turn of events did not go unnoticed by N. Rajesh Kumar and he decided to foray into the entrepreneurial world with his dynamic venture-UNIC Feeds. Wholly owned by the Wolfwall resources, UNIC Feeds is a Coimbatorebased manufacturing company of Food & Beverages. "The fisheries and aquaculture sector is a vital source of livelihood, nutritious food and is brimming with a plethora of economic opportunities because of fish and fishery products being the most important agricultural commodities that are significantly contributing to the world's Feeds security and economic development. At UNIC Foods we are shedding light on the largely `invisible' dried fish sector of the country," says, N. Rajesh Kumar, Founder, UNIC Feeds

UNIC Feeds has designed an engineered feature aimed at addressing the drastic issues like Weight loss, moisture content, protein deficiency, impurities (silica) & other chemical dosage effects that are faced by Feed end user/animal livestock owners. The business model of the company is committed to achieve an Eco-Friendly, Plastic Free Zone with Zero Percent of negative environment impact. An unorganized and underdeveloped sector, the company is targeting to make quick changes and fill the gaps in the entire Supply Chain wherein the producer-distributor-retailer-end user will be benefitted. "Most workers engaged in the fish drying sector are hired under unfavourable

working conditions and these exploitative working conditions are undermining the well-being of the workers. Through our venture, we are giving labourers an environment where they will work with all the Safety Aids and will be protected from Sun Flares, Skin Damage and other health issues," says, Vinoth kumar, Director, UNIC Feeds.



Under the guidance of Dr. Bhagwan Gawai, Chairman and MD of CITAX Energy DMCC, Dubai & DASOFF Petroleum Services LLC; the company has grown tremendously and achieved a turnover of 250-400 millions in its first year.
