A Legacy of Equity and Justice

A Legacy of Equity and Justice At Hapros, we uphold the belief that fair compensation is the cornerstone of a sustainable and ethical agricultural supply chain. From contract labourers in the fields to those working in our warehouses, we ensure that everyone involved is treated with dignity and paid equitably for their contributions. Our commitment to fair wages has deep roots in our company's history. Here's how we make it happen:

A Defining Moment in 1982:
o During a period of widespread labour unrest in 1982, Khushalchand Khimji, one of our visionary founders, championed their cause, despite facing significant personal and financial setbacks.
o Resisting immense pressure from peers and the wider business community, he successfully negotiated improved wages and working conditions.
o This act not only strengthened trust with the workforce but also established a legacy of fairness and ethical practices that continues to guide us today.

Modern-Day Practices: Contract labourers on farms and warehouse workers are paid above the prevailing market rates, safeguarding them against exploitation. In addition to fair wages, we provide perks such as healthcare support, accident insurance, and skill development opportunities. We prioritize prompt payment cycles to alleviate financial stress for our workers. By hiring locally, we generate income opportunities within farming communities, fostering economic growth and stability.
