Mittal is a great visionary, his experience and foresight has been a constant guiding force for Nik. The father thought out of the box and the son went out of the way to fulfil a common aspiration.  Mittal has always asked his sons to make a career in the field they obtained education in. While a major chunk of the youth flew abroad to earn dollars, Nik was there to earn the expertise in his field. As a student a chef is taught many lessons and the walk-in factory of Nik Baker’s is the culmination of all such lessons. Nik allocates, “I was given enough time and freedom to finally decide what I wanted to do. Once I made my mind, there was no looking back”.

MG STORES – AN EXEMPLAR

Irrespective of the fact that  Mittal is the owner of a Nik Baker’s, his kids could see him working overtime and attending to the smallest of details. Nik shares, “I find myself fortunate that my father not only shared great ideas but has always walked the talk.” Nik is no different.  Mittal shared an instance where Nik had dumped 300 cakes because those were not upto his standards. Nik and his younger brother Nitin could experiment at MG stores only because their father was open to change. At MG’s or Nik, the one thing that would never be compromised is the quality.
