01Namakkal
Namakkal trucks, eggs and workshops
Namakkal is closely associated with truck-body building and a very large transport fleet, alongside poultry farming and egg trade. Workshops here design and fabricate bodies, so drawing and CAD skills sit next to the logistics and accounts needs of fleet owners.
With most services needing a trip to Salem or Erode, online delivery makes sense. Learners choose a course in the evenings, then use weekends to practise on software.
