Social impact & sustainable livelihood business initiative
Since 2021, teaming up with the Cancer Institute (WIA), Chennai, Exodus Exports has been actively involved in providing alternative, sustainable livelihood opportunities to women previously engaged in beedi rolling.
This initiative was launched under the leadership of Dr. Shanta, Chairperson of the Cancer Institute WIA, Adyar – Chennai. Now with additional support from the District Administration, Skill India, and NABARD, through this collaborative effort, nearly 160 women have been successfully rehabilitated, enabling them to transition away from tobacco-related occupations into safer and more dignified employment.
The project is aligned with Article 17 of the World Health Organization (WHO) Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC), which promotes the development of economically viable alternatives for workers involved in the tobacco industry.
This program reflects our commitment to public health, women’s empowerment, and responsible business practices, ensuring that economic progress goes hand in hand with social well-being. Hence, to undertake this mission, we moved from Chennai to a remote village in the Tirunelveli district of Tamil Nadu, approximately 650 kilometres away, which lies at the heart of the state’s beedi industry. We have been operating our factory here for the past five years.
60 rural women engaged in beedi rolling were trained in wig making skills by Exodus Exports (P) Ltd. and the Cancer Institute (WIA), Adyar, Chennai, with training support sponsored by NABARD.
Our current project, undertaken in collaboration with NABARD and the Cancer Institute (WIA), Chennai, aims to recruit and train 300 beedi rollers in Tenkasi district. This initiative is expected to commence shortly and represents an important step towards creating sustainable livelihood opportunities while promoting awareness and healthier alternatives within the beedi-rolling community.

Who are these beedi workers?
Beedi is a locally made cheaper substitute for cigarette. Across remote villages in South India, many women earn their livelihood by rolling beedis from their homes. Women beedi workers faced numerous challenges including
Despite aspiring to move into safer and more sustainable livelihoods, they encountered significant barriers such as
Due to their limited skills, lack of basic education, and the remoteness of their location, these women were largely neglected and marginalized, remaining invisible to mainstream development efforts. The geographical disadvantages of the area further hindered the establishment and functioning of viable businesses, compounding their economic isolation.
Recognizing these challenges, and being in a position to make a meaningful difference, we are committed to expanding our operations in this region to support and empower these communities. In this endeavour, we are grateful to receive the support and partnership of the Cancer Institute (WIA), Chennai, which strengthens our efforts to create sustainable and positive change.
