“What intrigued me more is that it is an all-woman employed organization led by a woman founder. FromVedas takes inspiration from the ancient formulas and formulates new-gen concoctions. They take pride in making activated charcoal only from coconut shells, and the packaging is largely sustainable.”, said Shilpa Reddy, Co-Founder, SustainKart.

SustainKart has gained immense interest from the investor network due to its celebrity-led acquisition vertical. Bahram Vakil, Founder & Senior Partner – AZB & Partners, Anvita Varshney, ex COO – Naspers, amongst other HNIs, have invested in SustainKart earlier.

FromVedas was also awarded the “Best Emerging Eco-friendly Brand” by Times Business Awards in the same year it started its operations.
