About Us
Sara Enterprice
Sara Enterprises began with cotton trading in India in 1994.
The early business focused on understanding the cotton market, sourcing raw materials, assessing fibre quality and developing relationships with farmers, suppliers, traders and textile businesses.
This created the foundation for our understanding of the cotton ecosystem.

The project involved plans for a large-scale cotton farming development.
Although the venture did not succeed as planned, the experience became an important learning opportunity for the group.
It exposed Sara to the practical challenges of developing an agricultural business in a new international environment.
