Banchharam - A story to tell

 

A beginning with a difference

 

Almost 4 decades ago, in 1976, a small shop in the heart of Central Kolkata was where it all began.
Mr. Banchharam Ghosh, the man behind the brand, came to the city from East Bengal (now Bangladesh) after partition with his 2 brothers. It was real hard times for the young man. But he never gave up. After a few years of initial struggle, he started operating a few canteens at industrial houses. He was doing reasonably well. He gained lot of experience running this eatery business.

But Mr. Ghosh was not satisfied, he had bigger dreams. So he decided to set up his own shop. But he could not come up with a suitable name for it, even after several brain storming sessions. Finally, his friends suggested the best name was his own BANCHHARAM, which was uncommon for a sweet shop. And the menu to start with was – Luchi (Bengali Puri), Bonde (a small size traditional Bengali sweet) and Cha (tea). The most notable difference that the new outlet introduced was all its sweets were prepared in best quality Ghee. So, began the journey of Banchharam.
