G Pullareddy Sweets, a sweet mart with a touch of class and in a league of its own, a sweet mart. It has created a place of its own despite the influx of many big and small names.

The man behind the legend, Sri G Pullareddy took off in a typical Indian tradition selling his sweets on a small cart, which he carted along. That was back in the year 1948 when the nation as a whole was still basking in its newfound glory of freedom. He was 28 years old, he dared to dream, and his dream dared to become a reality and a spectacular success. Thus, the saga that began in the busy and crowded lanes of Kurnool went on to become a sort of rags to riches

The values that the man held dear, that is values of Purity, Integrity and Honesty, still lies intact and has kept alive the fair and neat name of the sweet mart. The crux of the values has catapulted the earthy beginnings in a cartwheel to 4 shops, 2 of which are in Kurnool and 2 in Hyderabad. Stringent and tough standards of quality are the bywords of G Pullareddy Sweets and there has been no let up in the same since its humble beginnings. Moreover, mind it all this despite the fact that today it has become a legend in its lifetime. The norms that the sweets has to be pure and thick, the milk rich, tasty and creamy and the dry fruits that go into its content the best of the best still holds true and implemented.
