Coimbatore, known as an industrial hub, is also dubbed the 'Manchester of South India'. It is also well known for educational institutions, its pleasant weather, friendly culture and exceptional hospitality. There is also a significant minority of people of North and West Indian origin in Coimbatore. People here are highly enterprising and industrious, which is one of the reasons cited for its phenomenal industrial growth. A boost for this industrial growth were provided by Naidus who settled here a few centuries before from Andhra Pradesh. This was followed by Gownders who are basically hardworking entrepreneurs.
