Before starting Farmkart,  Atul Patidar completed four post graduate degrees from the top global universities and worked for renowned companies such as Samsung, Ford etc.

On appreciation of Farmkart from the PM, Atul Patidar said, “Words of appreciation from Honourable Prime Minister Narendra Modi matter a lot for us.  I am thankful to the PM for the same. The Mann ki Baat address has boosted our confidence and energy.  This will encourage us to put more efforts in bringing a positive impact in the life of farmers.”

Currently, Farmkart distributes more than 700 agri-products from famous global and domestic brands such as YARA fertilisers, BASF, Valagro etc.
