Jaivik Setu, Indore's first and most authentic Farmers' Market, and also an organic produce shop, is growing stronger, better and more rocking, with each passing year !! It was inaugurated by Honourable Lok Sabha Speaker & Indore's then Member of Parliament - Smt. Sumitra Mahajan - in 2014 !! On 6 December 2020, amidst the coronavirus pandemic, Jaivik Setu celebrated 6 years of helping Indoreans live a healthier life, with organic food !!
The pandemic was another reminder to everyone for healthier living with eating less chemicals and harmful substances in commercial foods, and the need to adopt organic (chemical-free) food !! Jaivik Setu was quick to offer more convenience to the citizens, as it opened its second outlet during the pandemic, this time very much within the city !!
Jaivik Setu is a destination where several certified and approved farmers sell their Organic Produce and other Eco-friendly products !! Farmers get their freshest and the best organic produce such as bell peppers (coloured capsicums), lemons, radish, carrot, tomatoes, Green vegetables, etc. and fruits including guava, custard apple (
