Meet an “Amazing" Whose Tasty Treats Spell Success

Harbhajan Kaur, at 94, is reaping the rewards of a thriving “barfi” (a fudge-like Indian candy traditionally enjoyed at celebrations) business she launched at 90 with the encouragement of her daughter.

It all started when Harbhajan mentioned to her daughter that although she had lived a full life, one thing she always regretted was not making money of her own. Knowing how everyone loved her mother’s cooking, her daughter encouraged Harbhajan to make some of her best recipes and sell them, which is exactly what Harbhajan did. A shy woman who’d never been in the public eye, she staked out a position at a local organic market, interacted with customers on her own and came home victorious with 2,000 rupees ($12 US), her very first earned money. From such humble beginnings, Harbhajan’s business grew--and continues to grow--into the success it is today.
