Our Story

Madhubani Makhana is a family-owned business headquartered in Madhubani that specialises in the manufacturing and wholesale distribution of quality Makhana products across the world.

Our story about Makhana started nearly 90 years ago with the success of our late father, Sri Ram Chandra Sah, who was born in a middle-class peasant family in Madhubani (Bihar, India) and pioneered the business of buying and selling raw Makhana at a time when hardly anyone knew about this crop or its health benefits.

 In due course of time, his business acumen, honesty, the strength of personality and hard work led to the success and expansion of his business nationally and then internationally.  People started recognizing him as the famous "MakhanaWala".

Now, as the next generation, we are committed to continue his legacy and take up the duty to follow in his footsteps and keep his name and values alive. This will be a real tribute to him and we salute our real hero who has shown us the path of success.
