Double Chabi is an esteemed brand in the production and distribution of rice, and has been active for over seventy years in the commercial space, with no sign of slowing down any time soon. In fact, with the fourth generation of the founding Goyal family having joined the workforce, Double Chabi’s success is all but assured.

The company had been founded in 1959 by Kashmiri Lal Satpal, the patriarch of the family, in Taraori, Haryana, on a fertile patch of land across the Yamuna. From the very beginning Double Chabi was dedicated to providing the best possible product to the consumers. Established during the second five year plan of the Indian government, Double Chabi took advantage of the developmental initiatives and investments the newly independent Indian government was making in agriculture and industry, and blossomed into an extremely successful business over the years.

Till the 90s Double Chabi functioned within the boundaries of the nation, gradually expanding its business from one state to another. But in the last decade of the 20th century, as India liberalized its economy and opened up the possibilities of international trade, Double Chabi began exporting its products. Currently about 40% of their output is exported across five different continents.

The export section of the business was started during the 3rd generation of the family, by Brij Bhushan Goyal, who has been leading the company for the last three decades with the help of his brothers Jitendar and Pankaj Goyal. It is only recently that the aforementioned fourth generation of the family has joined Double Chabi’s management with Pushkar Goyal, whose youthful earnestness and energy has added a new dimension to the company’s activities.

An alumni of IILM Gurugram, where he studied BBA, Pushkar did a detailed survey of his family business as well as the circumstances of grain production and distribution in the subcontinent, before joining it and working his way to the top.

Holcim will use cash raised from the sale of its Indian business for acquisitions focused on building products and solutions, Chief Executive Jan Jenisch said on Monday, with the cement-maker currently eyeing 10 potential targets.

Holcim agreed to sell its Indian business to Adani Group for 6.4 billion Swiss francs ($6.38 billion), its largest divestment in years, as it seeks to lower its carbon profile and raise funds for takeovers.

Over the last 15 months Holcim has spent 5 billion Swiss francs ($4.99 billion) on a string of companies outside the cement market as it pivots towards building products like roofing and mortars.

“We hope we can keep a similar pace and put this money to work very fast,” Chief Executive Jan Jenisch told reporters.

“At the moment we have around 10 transactions being checked by us, being negotiated by us. They are small transactions, they are bigger transactions,” Jenisch told reporter.

“We are ready for another Firestone,” he said, referring to the $3.4 billion purchase of the American roofing business Holcim made last year.

The company would also look at smaller bolt on deals in the aggregates and ready-mix concrete areas, Jenisch said.

With remote work becoming more common especially in the wake of the pandemic-induced restrictions, the demand for virtual assistant, or VA, services have been growing. In a study of over fifty career categories, FlexJobs found virtual assistant was one of the top 10 fastest-growing remote career categories. In a nutshell, a VA provides remote services to professionals who need someone to support their business. The duties of a VA may include anything from answering emails to performing web development or content creation. In other words, a VA takes a huge burden off a busy professional’s shoulders.

The idea to create a virtual assistant business came to Justin Nelson, a 25-year-old licensed realtor and a serial entrepreneur despite the young age, during a road trip that lasted almost a year and brought him to 135 locations in the US where he delivered speeches to real estate agents. “Speaking is by far my biggest talent that I have. I love speaking and can sell anything to any audience when the offer is right and the need is there,” explains Justin. He taught over 10,000 realtors how to use social media in their line of business. By the time Justin hit the road, he was an experienced realtor with 5 years in the family real estate business under his belt and dozens of deals closed and hundreds of leads generated, all thanks to his mastery of social media tools. The business was initially founded by Justin’s father after the end of a long corporate career. Putting his son in charge of lead generation and all marketing turned out to be the right decision. In the sixteen months after getting his real estate license, Justin made $360,000 in CGI, an impressive outcome for a budding realtor. Having been promoted to the position of a team leader at the age of 19 he was instrumental in growing the team to fifteen people and opening an office in Colorado
