From Bihar's Wetlands
to Your Snack Bowl
We started with a simple belief — India's most ancient superfood deserves a modern, flavourful avatar. No frying. No junk. Just honest, crunchy makhana that makes healthy snacking exciting.
Bihar, India
The makhana capital of the world — where foxnuts have been cultivated in wetlands for over 3,000 years.
Bihar — The Heart of Makhana Farming
Deep in the wetlands of Bihar, farmers wade into chest-deep water to harvest foxnuts by hand — a tradition passed down through generations. Makhana isn't just a crop here; it's a way of life that supports thousands of families across Darbhanga, Madhubani, Purnia, and Katihar.
These humble foxnuts are one of nature's most remarkable superfoods — packed with protein, calcium, and antioxidants, yet incredibly light with almost zero fat. For centuries, Indian households have trusted makhana during fasting, festivals, and as a wholesome everyday snack.
We saw something special in this ancient ingredient — the potential to create a modern snack that's genuinely healthy and genuinely delicious. That's the idea that became Shree Vinayak Foods.
Farm to Pack — How We Do It
Rooted in Bihar
Bihar is the heart of India's makhana farming — producing over 90% of the world's foxnuts. The wetlands of Darbhanga, Madhubani, and Purnia have nourished this ancient crop for centuries. This is where our story begins.
Direct from Farmers
We work directly with makhana farming families in Bihar, building long-term relationships based on fair pricing and trust. By cutting out middlemen, we ensure farmers earn more while we get the freshest, highest-grade foxnuts — hand-harvested and sun-dried the traditional way.
Crafted with Care
At our FSSAI, ISO 22000, and HACCP certified facility in Jamshedpur, every foxnut is slow-roasted — never fried — and seasoned with carefully developed flavour blends. Our food scientists have spent years perfecting each recipe to deliver bold taste with clean nutrition.
From Our Hands to Yours
Every pack is hygienically sealed and shipped across India. From a small facility in Adityapur Industrial Area to snack lovers in Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, and beyond — our makhana travels the country so you can snack smarter, wherever you are.
