From India to Mississauga: The Story of the East India Company

Being an entrepreneur is not for the faint of heart, however moving to another country and starting a business adds its own set of joys and challenges.

Delve into the world of Vinod Kumar Jain and his family who have been importing exotic spices and dry foods to the Toronto-area for over 50 years. Family interviews give you insight into the highs and lows this family faces as business owners and new immigrants.

Thanks to the Jain family for sharing their story and to Ontario Trillium Foundation, who provided funding for this project.
