Dr. Brahmanand Nayak
Ayurvedalya was a dream. A simple dream to make Ayurvedic care, more accessible and affordable. The 5000 year old tradition of effective care and cure, had to be taken to people who need the most. Therefore we set on a journey and established first-of-its-kind, multi-brand Ayurvedic stores, in different parts of Bangalore. The visionary zeal of Heram Reddy and the untiring support rendered by Janardhan, played a pivotal role. It was their entrepreneurial passion, never-say-die attitude, and strategic thinking that provided the impetus. Along with that, the franchisee model blended well with our dream of making Ayurvedic care more accessible.
Within two years, 31 stores were opened across Bengaluru. Each and every store has been running successfully, offering affordable healthcare to people, where they are, at their convenience. 45 new multi-brand stores will be opened in the next 6 months across Bangalore and 150 stores across Karnataka in the next 12 months. A promising future that stand testimony to the dream.
