Rapid Organic Signs Rs120 Million Deal with Rajasthan Govt

Rapid Organic, a leading advocate for sustainable farming, has signed a Rs 120 million MoU with the Government of Rajasthan to establish a modern agro-processing plant in Sanchore.

The deal, formalized under the state's flagship Rising Rajasthan initiative, marks a significant step towards transforming Rajasthan’s organic food sector. The MoU was signed between R.A.S. Rajesh Chauhan, Director of the Agriculture Marketing Board, and GM Raj Bagaria, representing Rapid Organic Pvt. Ltd.

Yogesh Joshi, Founder and CEO of Rapid Organic, expressed pride in the partnership, saying, “We are committed to bringing about an organic food revolution not only in India but globally. This collaboration is a significant milestone in our journey of promoting sustainable agriculture.”

For over 14 years, Rapid Organic has supported eco-friendly farming practices. The new agro-processing facility in Sanchore will help convert raw organic produce into value-added products, enabling better market access and profitability for local farmers.

This move aligns with Rajasthan’s vision of becoming a hub for sustainable agriculture. The plant will also enhance infrastructure support for farmers, encouraging a shift towards eco-conscious farming techniques.

The event saw attendance from top state officials including Sudhansh Pant (IAS, Chief Secretary), C.R. Chaudhary (Chairman, Farmer Commission), Rajan Vishal (Secretary, Agriculture and Horticulture), Manju Rajpal (Principal Secretary, Cooperation Department), Sandeep Verma (Chairman & MD, Rajasthan State Warehousing Corporation), and Dr. Samit Sharma (Secretary, Animal Husbandry and Fisheries).

The partnership is a testament to the state's commitment to sustainable development and economic growth through organic agriculture. It also recognizes Rapid Organic’s longstanding efforts in building a healthier and greener India.
