Industries

* **Agriculture & Plantation:** The absolute backbone of the local industry, dominated by natural rubber production, processing (latex and smoked sheets), and spice cultivation. * **Construction & Real Estate:** Fueled by NRI investments, residential construction, home renovations, and interior design are major economic drivers. * **Retail & Commerce:** Local markets, supermarkets, hardware stores, and agricultural supply depots sustain the day-to-day needs of the residents. * **Healthcare:** Small-scale clinics and pharmacies serve the community, acting as an essential industry for the aging demographic. * **Wood & Furniture:** Small sawmills and artisanal furniture manufacturing benefit from the local availability of timber (like teak, jackwood, and rubberwood).
