Uttarandhra · Eastern Coastal Plains

दुकानें और बाज़ार

Andhra Fine Khadi Karmika Abhivrudhi SanghamPonduru, Srikakulam

Hand-spun Ponduru khadi dhotis, sarees and shirting

The workers' society through which most genuine Ponduru khadi is produced and sold. Counts are stated openly, and the higher ones are made to order rather than kept in stock.

Girijan Cooperative Corporation outletsVisakhapatnam, Araku, Paderu

Araku coffee, forest honey, tamarind, millets and gum

The state cooperative that buys minor forest produce from Adivasi collectors. Buying here is the simplest way to be sure the money goes up the hill rather than to a trader on the road.

The Etikoppaka toy workshopsEtikoppaka, Anakapalli

Lathe-turned lacquered toys in vegetable dye

Working lathes rather than a shop front. The vegetable-dye palette was deliberately revived here in the 1990s after the cluster had drifted to chemical colours, and it is now the cluster's main selling point.

Bobbili veena workshopsBobbili and Gollapalli, Vizianagaram

Full-size ekanda veenas and miniature souvenir instruments

A full instrument takes weeks and is ordered, not bought off a shelf. The miniatures subsidise the real ones.

Budithi brass workshopsBudithi, Srikakulam

Beaten brass and bell-metal vessels

The thin walls and the lathe-polished finish are what distinguish the work from cast brass.

Anakapalli jaggery market yardAnakapalli

Cane jaggery in blocks and pots, sold at auction

One of the largest jaggery markets in India, and the reason the local kitchen sweetens its sour dishes.

Palasa and Kasibugga cashew tradersPalasa, Srikakulam

Graded cashew kernels

Sold by whole-kernel count and breakage. Broken grades cost a fraction of whole and taste the same, which matters if the nuts are going into cooking.

Lepakshi and APCOVisakhapatnam and Vizianagaram

State handicrafts and handloom emporia

Fixed prices and reliable provenance for Etikoppaka, Budithi and Ponduru work.

Visakhapatnam fishing harbourVisakhapatnam

Morning sea catch, sold at auction

Early and loud. The dried-fish racks are alongside, and they are how the monsoon gets eaten.
