01 — Our story
Run by hand, led by heart
Ashok Kumar Hegde, a retired Coffee Board officer, built Shree Durga in 2011 out of a lifelong love for cashews — and for the farmers who grow them. To this day he champions locally grown nuts and the families behind them.
Usha Hegde is the backbone of the business. A homemaker at heart, she spends most of her day on the factory floor, watching over every batch, every grade and every pack.
“We treat every kernel like it's going to our own family's table.”— The Hegde family
