 Detail Overview of Match Box  Industries
 
 Origin:  
       During the period of Gandhiji's Swadeshi Movement, they went to Calcutta in 1921 to study the industrial technology and brought the same to our country. The first machineWIMCO was brought and since it fails to meet the requirements of the country,  Nadar brother studied the art of match production to fulfill the needs. Later Lucifer Match Industry and Bharat Match Industry, the  first unit of South India, were started at Sivakasi by them.  The match industries faced a very tough time between 1965 to 1975 as there was a scarcity for raw materials and red phosphorus. So in 1971, the industrialist and the founder of red phosphorus processing units started the red phosphorus units at Sivakasi itself in order to overcome the drawbacks.So in 1971, Mr. R. Shroff, an industrialist and founder of red phosphorus processing units helped to put up a red phosphorus unit to meet the need of cottage industries in and around Sivakasi. 

 Today's Trend: 
      These match industries were extended to the neighbourhood later on Mr. Iyya Nadar took sincere efforts to produce raw materials with the help of Government of India. The Pioneer Group of Industries started Potassium chlorate factories on limited concern basis by enlisting shareholders and supplied materials which helped increased production and offered employment to lakhs of people. Match making is ofcourse a cottage industry which employs only adults to took up raw materials and semi finished goods. They are also doing the packaging jobs.
