Himalayan Hemp Industries Pvt. Ltd.

Himalayan Hemp is a social-ecological community of farmers, innovators and artisans working to preserve the indigenous varieties of cannabis and hemp plants and economically viable community practices around it by making eco-conscious products like reusable cannabis hemp sanitary pads for marginalised communities. We started Himalayan Hemp with the objective of preserving the indigenous variety of cannabis and hemp plants while nurturing the home-equity based concept of "Hemp Family" of artisans, farmers and innovators. We also felt that conscious customers are supposed to be developed with effort by creating seminars in schools making young girls aware about reusability. After getting educated, we both felt that farmers and artisans were struggling and both the professions are struggling financially. Also, we named our organisation as Himalayan Hemp because we feel that it is threatened by existing policies of cannabis promoting the import of seeds from other countries and we want to preserve the overall biodiversity of the area. We are entering this competition with an objective to implement our model in different geographical locations especially, the marginalised communities while creating markets in same areas and other areas of the world where demand is high. We want to bring back the focus towards the concept of reusability for a sustainable and better future.
