Bloom December 2021
1. When we welcomed year 2021, we had hoped that nature would be kinder to us! However, in the
months of May-June it felt like we were in a dystopian world; grief, pathos, death and distress
uncannily gripped our lives. We lost colleagues, friends, family members and loved ones to the
pandemic. We faced the most unimaginable distressful moments. However, with utmost resilience and
the strength to cope with the harshest of situations, we were able to fight the 2nd wave of the
pandemic together. Let's hope 2022 will be a good year! We should not forget that COVID-19 is here
with us along with its variants. The fight is not over; it is on! We should not drop our guard and
continue to follow all the protocols to prevent any possible subsequent wave.
In spite of the year throwing up unprecedented challenges, our Company witnessed various
accomplishments and moments to cherish during the year. It is customary to mention the noteworthy
ones while we gear up to welcome the new year. Balmer Lawrie's Cold Chain Unit at Hyderabad

Sekhar also received the ‘Sustainable HR Leaders (PSU)’ Award given away by World HRD Congress
during the 29th Edition of the World HRD Congress & Awards function held on 16th February 2021 at Taj
Lands End, Mumbai. Balmer Lawrie won the “West Bengal Best Employer Brand Awards 2021” given
