Achiever's Success Story
From Farm to Factory!
Ram laid the foundation of Harvestify, his entrepreneurial venture with social impact, much before its inception. This happened in his formative years of living in a village, 50kms away from the city. Having closely seen the struggles of farmers from sowing to harvesting. He vowed to give back to the community, once he was capable of doing so.
Harvestify was co-founded by Ram N singh with an aim to define how technology and agriculture can work in tandem to directly solve the problem of people who feed us, our farmers.
The F2F (Farm to Factory) supply chain model is the best B2B platform, connecting food companies to farms, and in return, empowering the farmers through economic development.
Ram has always swore by his motto of farmer empowerment through economic development in the most difficult of times.
He refused to partner with such multinationals or investors who were either not ready to give fair prices to the farmers or were compromising on their well-being by ignoring them from crucial business decisions.
Harvestify runs on the basis of a farm to factory model. This model was created by keeping the farmer’s interest in mind.
Today Harvestify has a strong client list of ethical companies like Hershey India Pvt Ltd,ITC,Cargill.
Harvestify collaborates with multiple Farmer Producing Organizations and has impacted the lives of more than 1lakh farmers. This impact has been created through Supply chain management , transfer of technical knowledge, skill development and best practices to improve the yield .
A web portal has been created for guidance on protein crop cultivation and farm waste management practices and effective digitalise supply chain solutions .
