Hemlata Agromatics India Private Limited

We’re located in Chinchni, which is in the Tasgaon area of Sangli. Our business, Hemlata Agromatics, runs out of the premises owned by Shri Mali Vasant Dattatray. It’s a local setup that focuses on the aromatic side of farming. We’ve always been interested in how different plants can be used for their scents and oils. It’s a bit different from the usual grain farming you see around here. Sangli is a good place for this kind of work because the climate is just right. Our place isn't anything fancy. It’s just a workspace where we process what we grow. It can get quite fragrant in there, depending on what we're working on that day. We aren't a huge factory with big machines and hundreds of people. It’s a small team, mostly friends and family who know the plants well. We don't have a corporate office with a receptionist. Usually, if someone comes by, they’ll find us in the back or out checking the plants. We handle everything from the planting to the final product ourselves. It’s a lot of work, and sometimes the yields aren't what we hoped for, but that's just part of the gamble. The steam from the distillation can get pretty thick, and the whole yard ends up smelling like herbs. It’s a nice change from the dust of the road. We spend a lot of time talking about the timing of the harvest. We’re proud of what we do here.
