Aakar Innovations

Aakar Innovations Private Limited is a Social Enterprise. Aakar believes that true women empowerment is only possible when we create equal opportunities for women. To achieve this Aakar has developed a small scale production unit for sanitary pads, a ‘superior mini-factory’. It runs on simple technology that works in the challenging environments of rural India.
Through the set-up of a mini-factory both menstrual hygiene issues are addressed and improved as is social and economic impact realized.

“In order to reach our goal of one million jobs for women in rural India, we have a strong focus on job creating business models in textile and food & agri.”
