Our Story
Orchards Box was born out of a desire to change the way apples are brought to your table. For generations, farmers in Shimla have cultivated some of the finest apples, but the traditional supply chain has often left them struggling to make a fair living. Middlemen took a large share of the profits, leaving farmers with less than they deserved, and customers with apples that were far from fresh.
Amit Palsra, who grew up in these orchards, saw the challenges firsthand. He realized that by eliminating the middleman and connecting directly with consumers, farmers could earn fair value for their hard work, and customers could enjoy apples at their freshest. With a vision to revolutionize the farming industry, Amit and a group of young, passionate farmers launched Orchards Box.
