Daga Brothers

What Daga Brothers does

Daga Brothers is a family-owned dry fruit retail business founded in 1948 and headquartered in Pune, Maharashtra. The company sells premium dry fruits, nuts, seeds, dates, spices, berries, and specialty items through a hybrid retail-and-ecommerce model, operating six physical stores across four Indian cities — Pune (Laxmi Road, Aundh, Hadapsar), Mumbai, Kolhapur, and Ahmedabad — alongside the dagabrothers.in e-commerce platform, which ships to more than 100 Indian cities with same-day delivery available within Pune.

Its core product catalog comprises 95+ SKUs organized across nine categories (Dry Fruits, Nuts, Seeds, Dates, Spices & Other, Nutrizione, Berries, Exclusive, and Mukhwas), with weight-based unit options ranging from 100gm to 1kg and INR pricing from approximately ₹24 to ₹5,400 inclusive of taxes. The technology stack is a conventional e-commerce storefront (SSL-secured checkout, user accounts, order tracking, customer reviews) rather than proprietary platform IP. Sourcing emphasis is placed on premium origins (California almonds, Iranian pistachios, Afghan apricots and figs, Kashmiri saffron, Middle Eastern Medjool dates) and transparent grade labeling (W180, W240, W320 cashews), with controlled storage practices and short supply chains used to position on freshness.

Revenue is generated through one-time retail transactions both in-store and online, with a dedicated corporate gifting vertical offering curated gift boxes (400gm to 1.5kg), customized hampers, and gifting coupons in ₹200, ₹500, ₹1,000 and ₹2,000 denominations. The company holds FSSAI food safety certification (license 11519035000739) and is led by founder Kishor Chandak with Amey Chandak on the team. No external investors, parent company, or institutional ownership are indicated in available sources.
