Rooted in nature
In the forests of Burma (now Myanmar), our founder, Mr. M. Manal, saw a man feeding some agitated elephants the roots of a local herb, which calmed them down.
He became curious, and after scientific evaluation, discovered that the herb, Rauwolfia serpentina, possessed antihypertensive properties.
Operations started in India
Our first establishment opens in the picturesque city of Dehradun at the foothills of the Himalayas.
