About Korakundah
Sir Robert Stanes was the founder of the United Nilgiri Tea Estates Co.Ltd (UNTE). Still a young boy of 17, Robert Stanes immediately launched himself on a career that was remarkable blend of entrepreneurship and philanthropy.
He set up and developed the area and for his contribution to society Robert Stanes was also conferred the title of Kaiser-e-Hind. In 1960, Sri. S. Anantharamakrishnan, father of the present chairman Mr. Sivasailam, bought over the interest of the Stanes family, not only in UNTE, but in a score of other family businesses in Coimbatore and the Nilgiris. UNTE along with other companies from the Stanes 'stable, became a part of South India's pioneering business conglomerate the Amalgamations Group.
