    Haryana Cobbler Running Hospital For ‘Wounded Shoes’ Gets New Kiosk, Courtesy Anand Mahindra

    IANS, 01 Aug, 2018 01:12 PM

      Business tycoon Anand Mahindra, who is fairly active on social media, recently shared a picture of a cobbler sitting in front of a billboard that claimed to be a hospital for ‘wounded shoes’. Impressed, Mahindra said that the man could teach marketing to management students and his team even tracked the man down with an offer to help.

       

      The cobbler identified as Narsi Ram from Haryana, refused monetary help from Mahindra and instead requested a better kiosk. Determined to help him, Mahindra gave the task to his organisation’s design team and even shared various design options the team came up with.

       

      Seems like the project has finally concluded with Mahindra tweeting a video of the kiosk on Wednesday.

       

      “Remember the cobbler Narsi Ram with the innovative banner ‘Zakhmi Jooton Ka Hospital?’ Our team had contacted him & conveyed my interest to invest in him. He said he wanted a good kiosk. This is what our Design studio in Mumbai came up with: Great work guys! Will be delivered soon,” he wrote.
