The Journey

From Angul to a Farm-Direct Food Brand

The Beginning
Nihar grew up in a middle-class family in Angul, Odisha β€” where everyone expected him to get a government job. He had different plans.
Education
He pursued B.Sc. (Hons.) in Agriculture from M.S. Swaminathan School of Agriculture, Paralakhemundi, followed by an MBA in Agribusiness Management from KIIT School of Rural Management, Bhubaneswar β€” one of India's leading agribusiness institutions.
Corporate Years
He spent two years in the corporate sector across two organisations, learning how India's farm-to-consumer food supply chain really works β€” and where it fails farmers most.
The Turning Point
A personal circumstance led him to resign. In that quiet moment, he noticed something hiding in plain sight β€” Odisha's finest regional foods like Kandhamal Turmeric, tribal millets, and cold pressed oils were invisible to the very consumers who needed them most.
Soil to Serve is Born
Not from a boardroom. Not from funding. From a son of Odisha who refused to let his land's authentic, nutrient-rich food go unnoticed by Indian consumers.
"Everyone told me to get a job. I chose to build something that gives farmers a better one."
A Traveller at Heart
Beyond building Soil to Serve, Nihar is an avid traveller who finds inspiration in every corner of India β€” from the waterfall trails of Malyagiri to the spice farms of Kandhamal. He is planning to feature iconic tourist destinations of Odisha and India right on the product packaging β€” because great food and great places both deserve to be celebrated together.
