CIMAGE Students Gain Real-World Experience at Sona Biscuits Ltd (Sobisco) During Industrial Visit to Hajipur

Industrial visits are a crucial part of a student’s learning journey, as they bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application. Keeping this in mind, CIMAGE organized an industrial visit to Sona Biscuits Ltd (Sobisco) in Hajipur, providing students with a first-hand look at the workings of a large-scale food manufacturing unit.

During the visit, students got a detailed tour of the biscuit manufacturing process, witnessing how raw materials are selected, processed, baked, and packaged before reaching consumers. Industry professionals guided the students, explaining each step with practical demonstrations.

They learned about:

• Raw Material Selection & Quality Control – Ensuring only high-quality ingredients go into biscuit production.
• Automated Production Process – How machines streamline biscuit making with precision and efficiency.
• Hygiene & Food Safety Standards – The importance of maintaining cleanliness and quality checks.
• Packaging & Supply Chain – How products are packed and distributed across different markets.

The students were fascinated by the level of automation and quality measures in place to maintain consistent taste and texture in every batch of biscuits.

CIMAGE’s Director, Dr. Neeraj Agarwal, emphasized the significance of such visits, stating:

"At CIMAGE, we always focus on providing practical learning experiences. Classroom learning is important, but exposure to real industries gives students an edge in understanding how businesses actually operate. Observing the entire manufacturing process at Sobisco was truly an eye-opening experience. It helped students connect their academic knowledge with industry practices. We sincerely thank Sobisco for this valuable opportunity."

This industrial visit was not just about observing machinery and production lines—it also helped students explore potential career opportunities in the food and FMCG industries. Many students expressed keen interest in learning more about food technology, supply chain management, and quality control, inspired by what they saw at Sobisco.

The visit ended on a high note, with students feeling motivated and better prepared for the professional world. Such experiences play a key role in shaping their career aspirations and helping them develop a deeper understanding of different industries.
