Our story

From Rajahmundry, the home of the mango pickle.

Aparaa’s founders, Mr Giridhar and Mrs Krishnakumari Mylavarapu, hail from Rajahmundry — the cultural capital of Andhra Pradesh and home of the famous mango pickle. They studied their family traditions devotedly before putting a single jar on a shelf.

Every jar is handmade with locally sourced regional ingredients — and Aparaa works with women in rural communities who make pickles and podis in their own households.
