A Corridor Town With Two Very Different Customers
Solan's position on the Kalka-Shimla corridor gives it a landscaping market that is genuinely split down the middle: pharma and industrial units in Baddi, Barotiwala and the surrounding estates on one side, and hillside bungalow, resort and homestay landscaping on the other. Few Himachal towns combine these two customer types so directly, and the difference in scale and access between them is significant.
Industrial frontage work tends to involve larger volumes of a single, practical grade laid across open ground around factory and warehouse buildings, while hillside residential and hospitality work involves smaller, more considered plots where appearance and slope handling matter more than sheer coverage.
