Neha has started a food preservatives venture called Dalade in Jowai. Dalade is a “local first” brand, involved in the production of 100% natural foods preserves. With an aim to encourage the traditional farming of seasonal produce, they are working to promote the sustainability of local farmers by procuring best crops directly from the farmers while also ensuring good prices for their harvest. The main goal revolves around ensuring the availability of healthy, seasonal and natural products in the local as well as international markets while supporting the farmers through sustainable economic practices. The range of gourmet foods are handmade in small batches using natural ingredients and zero preservatives. Each batch is made with 100% pure & fresh produce, minimum sugar, and lots of care, we bring the best and fresh of the season.
Her vision is zero wastage of farmers produce and reduce wastage of the produce by increasing shelf life through value addition. While doing so, she also wants to ensure that the best gourmet food from the kitchen reaches the kitchen cabinets of India. She is fine with taking her business slow, and is open to exploring various models to structure her business.
Neha is from Cohort 2.0 of Project Her&Now.
