Vavechi Sarhad Farmer Producer Company Limited

We are located out in Village Khimanvas, which is in the Wav Taluka of the Banas Kantha district. Our place is basically two shops, numbers 19 and 20. Being out here in the village means we are right in the middle of where the farming actually happens. This is a producer company, which means it is run by the farmers themselves. We aren't like those big city businesses with shiny offices. We spend our days meeting with local growers to talk about seeds, fertilizers, and where they can sell their harvest for a decent price. It gets incredibly hot out here in Gujarat, especially during the summer months. The shops are very simple, just a place for us to sit down and talk through things. Sometimes we have a lot of people crowded in there, all talking at once about market rates or the lack of rain. It’s a real grassroots operation. We try to help each other out so that everyone can get a fair deal for their hard work. Most of what we deal with is mustard, cumin, or whatever else grows well in this dry soil. We don’t have a website or any fancy brochures. We just have our two shops and a lot of people who work the land every day. Life here follows the seasons, and we just try to make things a little easier for the local farmers.
