Start with a hearty buffet breakfast — Indian and continental options — served typically 7:00am–10:30am; a good chance to review your visit schedule and call factories to confirm appointments.
Walk the concentrated tile market and nearby showrooms to sample product ranges, finishes, and prices; most showrooms open around 10:00am and close by 6:00pm, so midday is ideal for quick comparisons.
Enjoy a traditional Gujarati thali and local vegetarian specials; popular with business visitors and usually open 11:00am–3:00pm — efficient for a midday break.
Tour a nearby manufacturing unit to observe production lines, glazing, and quality checks; most factories run 9:00am–5:00pm (Monday–Saturday) — confirm visit times and PPE requirements in advance.

Quick, hearty lunch offering Gujarati and North Indian dishes; most nearby eateries serve lunch 12:00pm–3:00pm and are accustomed to serving factory teams.
Attend a focused meeting on specifications, sample approvals and logistics with the plant’s technical or export team; afternoons (2:00pm–4:30pm) are normally best for sit-down technical discussions.
Revisit prioritized showrooms or collect additional sample tiles identified on Day 1; many showrooms close by 6:00pm so schedule to arrive before closing.
