The Department of Commerce and Finance, Quantum University, Roorkee, organised an industrial visit to Tupperware, Dehradun, for its B.Com third-year students. The visit aimed to provide firsthand exposure to industrial operations, manufacturing processes, quality management and organisational practices, helping students connect classroom learning with the functioning of a manufacturing unit.

During the visit, students participated in a guided tour of the manufacturing facility and observed the different stages involved in producing kitchenware products. Company representatives explained the manufacturing cycle, covering raw material processing, moulding, product finishing, quality inspection and packaging. Students also gained insights into the functioning of machinery, production techniques, workflow management and measures adopted to maintain product quality and operational efficiency.

The interaction with industry representatives helped students understand the practical application of concepts related to production management, operations, quality assurance, inventory management and organisational functioning. They also learned about the importance of standardised processes, quality control, teamwork, efficiency and continuous improvement in a manufacturing environment.

The visit encouraged students to observe how different operational activities are integrated to ensure the smooth functioning of an industrial unit. This experiential learning opportunity provided a broader understanding of manufacturing and business operations while strengthening their analytical skills and industry awareness.

Overall, the industrial visit was an informative and enriching learning experience that enhanced students’ practical knowledge and industry orientation. The initiative reflected Quantum University’s emphasis on experiential learning and its efforts to bridge the gap between academic concepts and real-world industrial practices.
