14. Case study on India Udyogini
Udhyam Jagaran Sansthan (UJAS). Udyogini has helped establish women-owned
and operated associations called UJAS, to provide production, training and
business support services for the producer members. UJAS is also the brand
created by Udyogini’s members. In Bikaner, the UJAS brand of embroidery and
appliqué products are sold in exhibitions in India. In Pugal, UJAS have initiated (and
are managing) an embroidery production, training and business centre, with about
900 women members of the embroidery association. The main activities include
provision of raw material kits, the collection of finished products, quality control,
dispatch of finished goods to suppliers, and disbursement of payments. Udyogini
facilitates linkages with fashion institutes. to provide beneficiaries with intensive
training. Beneficiaries’ participation in exhibitions is encouraged to establish
linkages with buyers and traders.
Value chain approach. In Udyogini’s experience, the value chain approach is useful
to promote enterprises, and to take advantage of particular existing market
opportunities to the advantage of the poor. The organization’s experience in
Mandla, Saharanpur and Bikaner, has shown that aggregation is a key requirement
to obtain the necessary volumes to reduce costs and compete in the market.
Impact on target group. The project is reaching the poorest women. Discussions
with Udyogini’s project team have indicated that beneficiaries’ monthly income
increased from USD 33 to 66.

15. The case of a woman entrepreneur
Savitri Bai. Savitri Bai used to cultivate maize on her land, earning a seasonal
income of USD 11-18. After the awareness-raising campaign initiated by
Udyogini on business potentials, technical aspects and market information of
vegetable cultivation, Savitri Bai started cultivating Brinjal. Her seasonal gross
profit rose to USD 417. Initially, she took her vegetables to the market by bicycle;
after realizing that her profits and productivity were increasing, she started
hiring a car for the purpose.
Key features
Effective governance. Udyogini is a dedicated development-oriented
organization. The successful implementation of its projects is attributable to its
success in boosting beneficiary incomes.
Coordinated delivery of services. Projects undertaken by Udyogini have provided
a coordinated delivery of services, including capacity building, technology
transfer, provision of credit, access to market.

grading and weighing are undertaken by the women producers’ association. Vertical
integration was adopted in selected products. UJAS is the brand under which
members’ associations sell their products. Trust. The formation of producers’
associations contributed to building trust amongst members. However, it is not
evident whether other trust building measures
such as workshops, have been used.

Diversification. Producers are encouraged to engage in income generating activities

• Capacity building. Change in the psychological mindset: encouraging women
to become business entrepreneurs, and to understand, for instance, the need to
take risks. Two stages are required for women to increase their market control: a)
livelihood security; and b) enterprise growth. The first one trains women to
understand market channels and operations, and the requirements for creating
sustainable micro-enterprises. The second one aims at increasing women’s
entrepreneurial skills, so that their enterprises become their primary source of
income, reducing their dependence on intermittent labouring .

17. • Chain efficiency/Competitiveness. Products are competitive with other
generic items in the market. However, it is not evident whether the products
would be able to compete with other stronger actors or brand competitors.
• Inputs. In the case of UJAS in Pugal, members are provided with the
required raw materials.
• Technology transfer. Udyogini encourages and trains members to adopt
improved production technologies.
• Market linkages. In the case of UJAS in Pugal, beneficiaries are encouraged
to participate in exhibitions, especially to establish linkages with buyers and
traders.
• Sustainability. It cannot be judged at this point but the interventions seem
to require the ongoing presence of Udyogini.
