Amidst the start of India’s struggle for freedom in 1923, Mr. Abbas Rahim Hajoori, a youngster from Surat, invented India’s very own home-grown fresh juice based carbonated drink Socio.
The name Socio was derived from the Latin word Socious which means to be a member; in classical Roman times Socious was used to refer to a comrade, friend or an ally. Abbas chose this name to encourage the Indian Consumers to accept a home-grown drink over then prevalent foreign brands.
