Question
Mr. Sanad & Mr. Utkarsh the directors of Flying Peacock Packaging Pvt Ltd visited Cotigao
village, while they were on their trip to Cotigao wildlife sanctuary. Amazed to see the treasures
of biodiversity in the village, they took up an initiative to connect its products to the markets
of the world. Cotigao is a village positioned in the Canacona block of the South Goa district
which is rich in biological diversity. Despite abundant natural resources and adequate education
levels, Cotigao is one of the least developed (economically and industrially) regions in Goa.
Impressed by the land fertility and agricultural product quality, they came up with the
innovative idea of packaging the agricultural produces and selling them directly in the markets
thereby removing the middlemen who take the major chunk of farmers' profit. The business
model aims to empower the farmers and serve the community members. The company is on
the verge of setting up a processing and packaging plant in the village after signing an MOU
with the farmers which includes providing employment opportunities to the farmers.
