Our Story

75 Years of Pure Wood Pressed Oil Making

Shuddhayu's story began generations ago when our family started producing pure lakdi ghana oil using traditional wooden press. For us, oil was never just a business—it was a responsibility that guides our family even today.

A New Chapter
Mr. Sanjay Gadekar
Mr. Sanjay Gadekar
Founder & Visionary

Professional cyclist for 15 years who transformed his passion for health into a mission to bring pure oil back to Indian households.

When the family moved to Ahilyanagar, Mr. Sanjay Gadekar carried the legacy forward. As a professional cyclist for 15 years, he understood the importance of pure, healthy food. But he noticed lifestyle diseases like heart attacks, high blood pressure, diabetes, and obesity were rising and the main reason was that almost every household was using refined oil.

"People deserve real, pure wood pressed oil again."

In Savedi, he opened our first shop 'Jay Santaji Lakdi Ghana' and introduced a new level of transparency. Fresh oil extracted live in front of customers. The honest approach won people's trust. Soon, branches opened at Subhash Chowk, Ahilyanagar, and Surat.

A New Vision

To take this purity across India, the next generation stepped in. Today, the brand is led by Mr. Suraj Sanjay Gadekar, who continues his father's values with a modern vision.

He realised one thing: If purity must reach crores of Indians, the brand must carry a name that represents that purity. And that is how "Shuddhayu" was born.

Today, Shuddhayu oils are available on Amazon, Flipkart, JioMart, and our official website, ensuring pure wood-pressed oils reach every corner of the country.

Lakdi ghana oil is not just healthy. It is our culture, our tradition, and our way of living. And the Gadekar family will continue protecting this purity - generation after generation.
