Our motto hasn't changed much ever since, if something has changed it's our products which only got better, and our kitchen, bigger.” The co-founders said after the inauguration of their first store.
“It didn't take long for us to realize that our products were running out of storage sooner than before and hence we decided to upgrade Hamd Home Products to Hamd Home Store, filling out the shelves with a variety of products not just from our company but other similar organic products companies too. For more transparency and to develop trust, we have now opened the Hamd Home Store, wherein we have made it easy for the customers to see the products before buying them, to rid of uneasiness often faced during online shopping.
“When you pick up a packet of Hamd products, you choose food made in a homely atmosphere, with immense care and hygiene. Products weighed and sealed are fresh, nutritious & delicious. Additionally, our products are produced and packed in a small range to preserve freshness. We make sure it has no contaminants, or any damages all the way from our kitchen to your table.” They added.
