How Big Mishra Pedha Started
The story of Mishra Pedha began with a person named Avadhbhihari Mishra. He was the founder of this sweet-making business. In 1933, he moved to a town called Dharwad. There, he started making a special sweet called Pedha, but only in small amounts.
Later, his son, Ganesh Mishra, helped the business grow a lot. He expanded the production of Pedha and started making it in the city of Hubli. This helped the company become much bigger and reach more people.
