Who is FreshNet?
A coconut company that starts at the farm gate.
FreshNet Farms was founded in Pollachi, Tamil Nadu, in February 2019 to connect Indian coconut farmers with markets at home and abroad — sourcing, grading, processing and exporting in one chain.

Our story
From one belt to many markets.
Pollachi sits at the foot of the Western Ghats, in one of India's great coconut belts. Its farms are mostly small and family-run. This is how we built a dependable link between them and the world.
Vision
An agricultural ecosystem where Indian farms are connected to global value.
Our mission: connect farmers, sourcing, processing and markets through efficient, responsible value chains that create more value for every stakeholder.
