## Bhumima means Mother Earth

Bhumi is the earth; Ma is mother. The name is a reminder that most of what we sell starts with a farmer, a weaver or a factory floor in India.

Bhumima is a merchant exporter based in Nashik, Maharashtra. We source Indian products from suppliers, processors and manufacturers we have checked, and sell them to importers, manufacturers and retailers abroad.

Our first product lines are dehydrated onion, raisins, woven packaging, tarpaulins and pond liners, and Paithani textiles. We are a young business, so we take each product step by step: we compare suppliers, samples, costs and each market's rules before we quote, and we add products only when we can supply them properly.

We own the buyer relationship, the specification, supplier selection, quality records and export coordination. Processing, testing, inspection, customs brokerage and freight are carried out by qualified specialists we choose and check.

Plain dealing, in writing, with proof at every step.
