Our founders
It started with a simple thought.
When we started GoHonest, we were Shilpa Bhalerao and Amit Bhandare, two family friends working together on an NGO project. A project around cold-pressed oils sparked a simple thought: why not bring honest food products into everyday kitchens?
We soon realised we needed to be product-centric, not method-centric. We explored wooden, stone-pressed and expeller methods, but after studying them, we chose hydraulic technology for our oils.
Just as technology evolved from wooden ploughs to steel ones, methods too need to evolve with changing needs.
And because oil is a daily-use product, scalability must go hand in hand with affordability.
