About Swadesh Makhana

Every great brand begins with a vision. Ours is to bring the goodness of makhana to more people while building a premium Indian brand rooted in Bihar.

Swadesh Makhana was founded by Devansh Kumar and Guruprasad Kulkarni with a shared ambition to create a trusted name in the makhana industry.

With a focus on premium-grade selection, processing and customer experience, we aim to make Swadesh a meaningful part of everyday snacking and the wider makhana supply chain.

Our belief is simple: quality, care and consistency should be at the heart of every product.

Our Story

Bihar holds a special place in India’s makhana story. For us, it is more than the place where our brand is based. It is part of the inspiration behind what we are building.

At Swadesh Makhana, we see an opportunity to bring this distinctive Indian food to more households, retailers and businesses through a brand that combines regional roots with a modern approach to quality and presentation.

We are building step by step, with the ambition to serve customers across India and explore opportunities in international markets.

What We Do

Our work covers the processing journey from raw material to finished makhana. We focus on product selection, handling, processing and preparation for packaging, with attention to the details that shape the final product.

We offer raw makhana for individual customers and welcome enquiries from businesses looking for bulk supply.

As our product range grows, our focus remains on developing products and customer experiences that reflect the Swadesh name.
