About The Company

In 2018, two siblings, Vinay and Raksha Kothari, came together to start a packaged food brand called GO DESi- a brand that champions the promotion of regional and traditional food.

It all began when Vinay, an FMCG professional on a trek to the Western Ghats, noticed some jackfruit candies on a roadside stall. In a bite, he was transported back to his childhood. Inspired, he set up a stall at a flea market, and guess what? Everything sold out in just half a day!

Encouraged by the positive response, he partnered with his sister Raksha to create a D2C brand that brought these classic flavours back to life.
