Home / Who we are
Two generations of milling Nepal's rice
From a small family mill in Parsa to a modern, solar-powered rice mill. The aim has stayed the same: honest, pure grain for Nepali kitchens.
Smart Agro and Food Industries
We are a rice-milling company in Bindawasini Rural Municipality, Parsa. We buy paddy directly from farmers, mill it on Japanese machinery and supply rice to homes, shops, hotels and wholesalers across Nepal. The by-products of milling, rice bran, kanika, rejection rice and husk, go to buyers too, and we also trade in wheat, maize and millet.
For most of our history we traded as Santosh and Sheetal Khadh Udhyog Pvt. Ltd., and our packs still carry that name. The company name is new. The family, the mill and the way we work are the same.
