Empowerment makes women economically independent, self-reliant and also helps create a positive attitude to face any difficult situation. Entrepreneurship development among women is an activity that promises encouraging results. Micro enterprises have a vital role in the empowerment of women in terms of economic, social, and psychological spheres.

Women are economically, socially, empowered through micro enterprises. Women empowerment is one among the major activities of Taluk Mannam Social Service Societies. It was the dream of Sri G. Sukumaran Nair, Secretary, Nair Service Society, to uplift women through women empowerment schemes. Various schemes have been introduced so far thanks to the efforts he has put in. Padma Café, one among his main dreams, has successfully materialised in Trivandrum. Padma Café is a chain of hotels and restaurants, and outlets have already begun functioning in six Taluks.
