Green Panther

What Green Panther does

Green Panther Ventures LLP is an India-based nature education and experience company headquartered in Bengaluru, founded in 2019 by Shruti Jha with Co-Founder Swati Surampally. The company reconnects urban children aged 4 to 12 with the natural world through guided outdoor programming, including weekend nature trails, short treks, overnight camps (stargazing, firefly, monsoon mushroom exploration), bird watching, tree walks, bug safaris, nature journaling and art, storytelling, and nature-themed birthday parties. Its primary customer base is urban families in Bengaluru, Pune, and Mumbai, with secondary outreach to schools, corporate organizations, and healthcare providers for nature-education curricula, CSR programs, and child-development recommendations.

The business combines experiential services with a small line of physical nature products sold through a WooCommerce-powered direct-to-consumer e-commerce site using the Razorpay payment gateway. Physical SKUs include the Birding Journal (₹450), the DIY Birdhouse Kit (₹300), and the broader "Nature-In-A-Box" product line of kits, books, and discovery tools. Service pricing ranges from approximately ₹250 per participant for entry-level events up to ₹14,000 for premium overnight glamping experiences hosted at partner venues such as Wilderness Jungle Camp. The company operates a stamp-based loyalty program, Wild Miles, that rewards families with complimentary experiences after six attended events by 31 December 2026.

Green Panther is structured as a limited liability partnership, is founder-owned and bootstrapped with no disclosed external funding, and operates with a small team of 1–10 employees, including Naturalist Arun Kaulige with a background in natural farming and environmental education. Distribution is entirely direct-to-consumer; there are no resellers or intermediary channels, and customer acquisition relies on community word-of-mouth, social media (Instagram, Facebook, YouTube), Google reviews, blog content, and partnerships with schools, doctors, and corporates.
