“My aim is to empower women in my village through this business,” Nambie explained. “When I make pickles for business purposes, I involve all the girls in my village, allowing them to learn and achieve financial independence. I hope that after becoming the runner-up (MasterChef India), more opportunities will arise to grow my business, attracting more girls and women to join.”
