On 4th March, 2017 a felicitation program has been conducted by All India Manufacturers Association (AIMA) to praise and admire Mr. Prakash Agrawal for his wonderful contribution to the industry. The program has been organized at Shangri-La hotel, Bangalore.

Zed Black was established in 1992 by Mr. Prakash Agarwal. With a modest capital and his garage as the workplace, he started rolling agarbattis with his wife. He named his brand Zed Black instead with the association of spirituality or religion along with pitch black packet rather than flower print wrapping which made its identity unique and appreciable.

He has spent 25 years in this industry due to this remarkable contribution AIMA felicitated him with the great celebration.
