Zari and zardozi workshops
The town is known for zari work, and zari-zardozi heads Bareilly district's ODOP list.[4],[3]
- Sample photos in reply to a trader
- Ready note with the piece count
- Payment reminder on the agreed day
Faridpur began, tradition says, as a settlement called Pura and took its present name from Sheikh Farid, a governor of Bareilly. Today it is a tehsil town known for zari work.
For Faridpur's zari workshops working for traders in Bareilly and beyond, its jewellers, its schools and coaching centres, and the businesses on the Delhi–Lucknow highway: how one job moves from a design photo to a payment note on WhatsApp, which states need a template, and what each message costs in rupees.
See it work
A trader sends a Faridpur workshop a design photo for a run of embroidered pieces. Walk the job through its states to see when the workshop can reply freely and when it needs an approved template.
Only two states need a template: the ready note and the reminder, because the workshop starts them after a quiet stretch. Everything the trader prompts, from the first photo to the payment, is a reply at ₹0.145.
Write the two templates once, with the piece count, the pickup day and the amount as variables, and reuse them for every job.

Market brief
From the Bareilly district administration and Invest India's ODOP list; the town's history, roads and colleges are general background from Wikipedia.
The Bareilly district administration lists Fareedpur among its six tehsils, with Bareilly, Aonla, Bahedi, Meerganj and Nawabganj, and among its 15 blocks.[2]
Invest India's ODOP list names zari and zardozi, bamboo products and the goldsmith industry for Bareilly district.[3]
The town was originally called Pura and is said to have been founded by a branch of the Katehria Rajputs driven out of Bareilly in the seventeenth century; Sheikh Farid, governor of Bareilly before the Rohillas, renamed it.[4]
It became the seat of a new tehsil in the early 1800s and later absorbed the neighbouring village of Tisua.[4]
Faridpur is a Nagar Palika town known for zari work, on the Delhi–Lucknow highway, with Pitambarpur as its railway station.[4]
Its colleges include C.A.S. Inter College, founded in 1922, and the Baba Farid College of Management and Technology.[4]
The district describes Bareilly city as a centre of furniture manufacturing and of trade in cotton, cereal and sugar, near the Ramganga.[1]
Five businesses that follow from the zari work, the district's ODOP list, the tehsil and the highway.
The town is known for zari work, and zari-zardozi heads Bareilly district's ODOP list.[4],[3]
