Agri Solutions™ was established in the year 2002 by Vinay Adhye, who has been in the food business, primarily in sourcing and distribution of perishables to major foodservice operators and processors, for the past 20 years. He has been working on backward integration initiatives alongside farmers and growers for the last 3 years, and has been successful in developing supply chains in the western regions of India such as Nashik, Narayangaon, Sangli, Gujarat and Belgaon which are famous for producing good quality vegetables and fruits.
There are growing food safety concerns, both in developing countries, with respect to indiscriminate use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and developed nations with regards to increase in biotechnology applications and use of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs). A fervent passion for food safety and hygiene has led Adhye to embark on a mission to protect consumers' fundamental right "to know what they eat". He is also an active member of the Agribusiness Committee formed by Bombay Chamber of Commerce and Industry(BCCI)
