Our Story

From a vision to transform agriculture to a thriving network of 2500+ farmer clusters across India.

The Yathaavat Journey

A passionate first generation entrepreneur Manendra Singh (ran a venture of logistics and fashion apparels) was hustling to explore problems, gaps and opportunities to solve and bring sustainable impact in lives of millions. When he took a break and spent some time in a village near to Agra then his emotions touched with agriculture and he fell in love with solving problems of agriculture and farmers.

He decided to work on unconventional crops to uplift the lives of farmers which can create a small dent and can contribute to the economy of the country. He started learning about medicinal and aromatics plants in late 2017. He planned to start farming to increase the dimension of learning in this domain and started motivating other farmers towards aromatic crops.

In 2018, these efforts gave birth to Yathaavat which blends passion and essence to soothe, heal and enhance customer experience by keeping health, safety and wellness at the centre. Currently, we are involved in essential oils & their hydrosols, herbs and carrier oils.
