Who We Are
Integrated Beekeeping Services Since 2017
Thapovana Madhukendra is a beekeeping services enterprise established in 2017, registered with the National Bee Board and recognised as an MSME. We offer end-to-end apiculture solutions — honey production, bee colonies, bee boxes, beekeeping equipment, pollination services and training — while building a sustainable, alternative income stream for farmers across the region.
Through farmer-facing training and equipment support, we strengthen local beekeeping livelihoods and channel farmer-produced raw honey into organised, branded retail.
Our Mission
To make beekeeping a sustainable, financially viable additional income for farmers.
Our Approach
End-to-end support: colonies, bee boxes, equipment, pollination, training and a market for farm honey.
