Our Heritage
Those were the days when a fairly large contingent of Swiss National resided in Calcutta. While quite a few came here to work for various European Companies and Swiss Consulate, many had set up their own business as well. Those were in diversified professions. For example there were Tea Rooms like Flury's, Arizona, Ferazini, PAX which served excellent Cakes, Pastries and Chocolates. Then there were some firms dealing in Swiss Watches. Ch. Abrecht was certainly the Premier. some members may still remember Vol Kart Brothers which eventually merged with Tatas and Called themselves Voltas.
