Al Adil Trading Co LLC, being the ultimate destination for Indian foodstuff has enhanced their product portfolio with a wide range of products to make Gudi Padwa a memorable and special one. According to Dr. Dhananjay (Jay) Datar, Chairman & Managing Director, Al Adil Trading, “Gudi Padwa is a very auspicious day. It marks the end of the winter crop season and the beginning of the summer harvest season and is a very important festival. Farmers, especially in Maharashtra, plough their agricultural lands on this auspicious day of Gudi Padwa to ensure a good harvest throughout the year. The word Padwa is derived from the Sanskrit word Paddava, which means the first day of the bright phase of the moon. A Gudi means a flag. A stick decorated with a bright cloth, neem leaves and garlands is unfurled outside a Maharashtrian household and hence, it got the name Gudi Padwa. It is believed that bringing the Gudi at home can keep evil spirits at bay and fill good luck and prosperity in life.”
