**Fourth Quarter Grove Update of SRI Project**

**Reporting Period: July 2026 to September 2026**

**Date: 09-10-2026**

**Output 3: Promotion of Rural Enterprises Incubation Hub**

**Growing Sustainable Enterprises:** The Militha Jeevanopadula Sangham (MJS) unit, which produces body and home care products, continued its efforts to strengthen product packaging, marketing, and customer outreach. The unit uses eco-friendly packaging and participated in the _Fund-A-Sign_ event organised by the Deaf Aid Society, Bengaluru, opening up opportunities for continued participation in annual events and monthly stalls at the Sheila Kothavala Institute for the Deaf.

**Expanding Our Reach:** The Enterprises team participated in BioFach India Expo 2026, events at the Kirloskar Corporate Office, the Kirloskar Vasundhara International Film Festival, and the Ragikana stall in Bengaluru. These platforms helped improve product visibility of the promoted collective enterprises, and to connect with new customers, and strengthen retail and market linkages.

**Planning for the Future:** A review meeting with enterprise teams and consultants was held at Visthar, Bengaluru, to assess progress, identify areas for improvement, and explore strategies for business development, restructuring, and future growth.

Through these efforts, the Collective continues to strengthen its enterprises, build meaningful market partnerships, and create opportunities for sustainable livelihoods.

**Here are a few glimpses!**
