Renewable Solar Technologies for Sustainable Drying

Largest Solar Dryer Manufacturer In India

Raheja Solar Food Processing Private Limited (RSFP) is a social enterprise based in Madhya Pradesh, India, with a simple yet powerful mission - reducing post-harvest loss.

Every year, over 1.3 billion tons of excess produce, nearly 1/3rd of global production, is wasted due to the lack of proper food preservation methods. This constitutes around 15% at the farmer level, 10% during transportation, and another 10% at the consumer level. Such losses affect farmers. The environment equally gets harmed as rotting food emits methane, a potent greenhouse gas.

Farming communities face many hurdles, particularly the underutilization of Grade B produce and the impracticality of daily harvesting and market visits. These challenges often result in ripened crops being left to waste on farms, intensifying financial hardships and contributing to the devastating issue of farmer suicides.

At RSFP, we address these challenges by empowering farmers with solar food processing solutions, enabling them to preserve surplus produce and create value. This transformation helps turn potential losses into opportunities. By fostering responsible food processing ecosystems, we aim to minimize post-harvest food loss, reduce environmental impact, and support farmers in building sustainable financial futures.

Empowering Farmers with Solar Food Processing Solutions

Varun Raheja

Co-founder

While pursuing his B.E. in Mechanical Engineering, Varun Raheja, a passionate nature enthusiast, was deeply moved by the hardships faced by farmers and the alarming waste of precious crops. In 2018, at just 20 years old, he teamed up with his mother, Mrs. Babita Raheja, who is committed to empowering underprivileged women.

Together, they founded Raheja Solar Food Processing Private Limited (RSFP) to tackle the shocking impact of food loss and uplift struggling farmers. Inspired by his love for nature and an unshakable desire to create change, he launched RSFP in Madhya Pradesh, the Heart of India.

Seeing the pain of farmers losing their harvest to inefficient preservation methods, Varun, as the Co-founder and Director, developed a sustainable solution—Raheja solar dryers. These dryers became a beacon of hope, helping farmers preserve their crops, reduce waste, and secure better incomes.

RSFP isn’t just a company; it’s a movement of hope, sustainability, and empowerment. It’s a reflection of Varun’s vision to care for both nature and society, creating lasting change in the lives of small and marginal farmers.

Today, RSFP proudly supports over 50,000 farmers across India, building a thriving micro-food processing ecosystem that bridges these communities with the broader economy.
