Our Story
At a time when retirement was imminent, two ladies envisioned
a way to make an ecofriendly footprint on the world. In the light of visionaries,
to share that which they love with the world, Akshar Herbs and Spices came to be. With the sole purpose of making
organic products more available in the West and improving the livelihoods of
rural farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa by providing market for 100% of their
produce, the first stride was taken.
In 2017, Deviyani Jamindar, a retired officer from the New
York Fire Department and her niece, Nirali Pandya, an auditor of organic farms
and companies, shared this dream over coffee. Akshar works to bridge the gap
between the two worlds: West and East while ensuring optimum health and wealth
accordingly through Direct Trade.
All our products are organically grown. Akshar has
established long-standing relationships with dozens of organic suppliers. To
us, nothing matters more than supplying our customers with the highest quality
products, growing with our local suppliers, and conserving the environment.
