Dulal Chandra Bhar Making The World Sweeter & Healthier
The Origin In the midst of World War II, a company emerged that was determined to find an alternative to white sugar without the need for additives. Dulal Chandra Bhar saw the quality of the ‘saada mishri’ and the market demand for the product. He judged the gap in the market and produced tal mishri with the sap he collected from the palm trees in his ancestral home at Rajbalhat in the Hooghly district in West Bengal, India. The visionary found his raw material and then registered the land under the company’s name, which is the same as his own. The company started a full-fledged business in 1937 and has continued to grow since then. They never had to spend on advertising their product. Just like the magical way of the older days, it spread through word of mouth and is still a prominent household name for the people of West Bengal
