Bihar: Two brothers take advantage of 'PMFME' scheme, set up Kurkure factory in Motihari

Jaiswal brothers succeed in Bihar by leveraging the PMFME scheme to set up a Kurkure factory, generating employment and export opportunities.

"After this, I came to know about this scheme run by the government. - Sanjay Jaiswal"

Motihari, May 25

The 'Prime Minister Formalisation of Micro food processing Enterprises' (PMFME) scheme is a Central government scheme to address the challenges faced by micro-enterprises and also support their growth.

Two brothers in Bihar’s Motihari district have emerged as role models in their vicinity for starting and running a small-scale enterprise successfully. They started a Kurkure factory, taking help from PMFME and today, they are earning money as well as creating employment.

PMFME scheme supports and facilitates the aspiring youth in starting their small-scale enterprise, and also helps them tap the potential of local youth and co-operatives.

Vijay and Sanjay Jaiswal, two youths from Motihari, obtained a loan and subsidy under the scheme, and today they are shaping not only their future but also that of those looking for employment.

They set up a Kurkure factory by taking a loan under the scheme. They worked hard, and today their Kurkure is being exported to other countries.

Jaiswal brothers have given employment to dozens of youth in their factory.

Factory operator and younger brother Sanjay Jaiswal said, "After completing my intermediate studies, I went to look for work in big cities, but could not find work anywhere. After this, I came to know about this scheme run by the government. I understood this scheme well and then decided to set up a Kurkure factory.”

Elder brother Vijay Jaiswal said, "We started planning to set up this plant six-seven months ago. It was not easy for an ordinary family to raise the capital required for the plant. We applied for a loan of Rs 10 lakh 88 thousand under the PMFME scheme, which was approved.”

“We are running the plant well. I would only like to tell the youth that they should not waste their time on jobs and rather join a business. No business is ruined, and can grow from a small one to a big one. We thank the Prime Minister for this scheme," he added.

Sanjay Kumar, a factory worker, said, "Earlier, I used to do the same work in Delhi, but now I am doing it in Motihari. The advantage of this is that I take leave every month or two and go to my home in Saharsa. We request the Prime Minister to keep giving such small loans. This will prove to be very important for the future of Bihar."

This is exactly what Bihar needs - more local entrepreneurs creating jobs instead of migrating to other states! 👏 The PMFME scheme seems to be working well if young people like the Jaiswal brothers can turn their dreams into reality. More power to them!

While I appreciate the success story, I hope the government ensures proper quality checks for food products from such small units. Kurkure is a popular snack among children - we must maintain hygiene standards. Otherwise, great initiative!

Bahut badhiya! This is how we'll develop Bihar - through local businesses creating local employment. The brothers' success will inspire others in the region. Just imagine if every district had 10 such success stories!

The real win here is that workers like Sanjay Kumar can now earn in Bihar instead of migrating to Delhi. Migration breaks families and causes so many social issues. More such factories mean more families can stay together. ❤️

I hope the government provides proper marketing support too. Making Kurkure is one thing, but selling it competitively against big brands is another challenge. Wishing the brothers all the best - may their 'desi' snack become as popular as multinational brands!

As someone from Bihar, I'm so proud to see such stories! For too long, our youth have had to leave the state for opportunities. Now with schemes like PMFME, maybe we can reverse the brain drain. Jai Bihar! Jai Bharat!
