Our story

Rooted in tradition, growing for the future

Palm Era was born in our village in Tamil Nadu, from a vision shared by Kannan and Abinaya, a couple deeply rooted in the palm climber community.

With backgrounds in engineering and a profound respect for our heritage, we set out to preserve the endangered legacy of the palmyra palm, a tree that has sustained generations through its bounty.

Chapter 1

The spark of change

Our journey began with an unexpected opportunity: to save the palm trees in our village that were being felled due to crop destruction by wild boars. We negotiated with landowners to sustainably harvest the palms, ensuring that not a single fruit was wasted.

This experience opened our eyes to the challenges facing traditional palm climbing, including the lack of standardization, low wages, and the decline in the use of palm-based products due to modern agricultural practices and market demands.

Chapter 2

Crafting a sustainable future

Motivated to make a difference, we launched Palm Era with a dual mission: to raise the standard of palm-based products through innovation, standardization and good branding; and to bring palm products back into daily diets, especially for children.

We were determined to make sure these alternatives reached every table.

From the palm to your kitchen

Our palm jaggery begins with Padhaneer, the palm nectar harvested by skilled palm climbers. To make our palm jaggery powder, 10 litres of this nectar are carefully processed into just 1 kg of powdered palm jaggery.

We care for the land at every step, from field to table. Our palm jaggery is AGMARK certified and lab tested pesticide and residue free.
