When I returned from serving the nation as a soldier, I came back to my roots — to the villages where I had grown up. What I saw moved me deeply: hardworking people trapped in poverty, youth leaving in search of opportunities, and a sense of hopelessness that had quietly settled into the countryside.

It was in those moments that I realized my next duty — to serve the nation in a different uniform. The 1990s marked a new dawn for India, a time of liberalization and limitless possibilities. I decided to build a dairy not just as a business, but as a mission — a way to transform rural lives, create dignified livelihoods, and contribute to the larger story of nation building.

From the beginning, Sonai Dairy has stood on four pillars that define who we are and why we exist:

• Rural Development: Empowering villages through sustainable income and infrastructure.
• Women Empowerment: Enabling women to become equal partners in progress, both at home and in the field.
• Job Creation: Building opportunities that allow families to thrive where they belong — in their own communities.
• Animal Welfare: Caring for the very beings that sustain us, ensuring their health, comfort, and dignity.

Today, Sonai Dairy is not just a brand — it is a movement rooted in compassion, integrity, and responsibility. As we look to the future, our goal remains unchanged: to bring happiness to our farmers, value to our consumers, and pride to our nation.

I take this opportunity to express my heartfelt gratitude to all our suppliers — especially our milk-producing farmers — our dedicated employees, trade partners, customers, and every associate who continues to trust Sonai’s mission and support us. You give us the strength and courage to move forward with confidence and conviction every single day.
