About us

Bombay Hemp Company, also popularly known as BOHECO (Bo-hee-ko) is a privately held, social enterprise headquartered in Mumbai, India. BOHECO was founded to research on and promote industrial hemp, the super crop of our era in India. BOHECO was formally registered under The Companies Act (1956) on the 19th of January, 2013, with our operations ranging from research, cultivation, harvesting, processing, manufacturing, trading, wholesaling, retailing, innovating, advocating, creating a market for and promoting Indian industrial hemp both across the nation and around the world. We use public-private partnership, contractual farming and processing, subsidiaries and collaborative research models, all with an aim to build an industrial hemp & medical cannabis ecosystem or industry here. We go beyond the realm of a traditional, agriculture-centered manufacturing company, owing to our direct social engagement with rural communities, besides our ongoing work towards creating this industry and the consequent employment generation, along with the revival of Indian agriculture. BOHECO is an ethically, scientifically and legally driven company, that does not promote the misuse of any psychotropic substance, but instead works proactively, with the government to develop, promote and use no/low THC Cannabis sativa plant varieties. In 2017, we were awarded Second Runner-Up position at the Tata Social Enterprise Challenge, a joint initiative by the TATA group and the Indian Institute of Management (IIM), and The Social Innovation Leadership Award, at the Social Innovation Conference Awards, on World CSR Day.

    I don't normally title my conversations with industry leaders, but if I had to make an exception for my recent conversation with Bombay Hemp Company Private Limited's Co-founders Delzaad Deolaliwala and Yash Kotak, I would dub it "Green genes, big dreams". These power-packed pioneers take the super-seed very seriously, and treat India's Hemp hustle as serious business. Many conjure visions of Marijuana when asked about Hemp, but there's more to this bud than meets the eye. Hemp seeds are nutritional powerhouses, packed with essential fatty acids, complete protein, and a host of vitamins and minerals. They're often touted as a superfood, and for good reason. Incorporating hemp seeds into the Indian diet could potentially address some nutritional deficiencies and promote overall health. The legal status of hemp has been a contentious issue in many countries, including India. While industrial Hemp (with negligible THC content) is distinct from Marijuana, the two are often lumped together in legislation. This has created hurdles for the hemp industry, but it seems things are slowly changing. As more people recognize hemp's potential, we're seeing shifts in policy and perception. The idea of hemp as India's "secret weapon for a greener future" is intriguing, and my conversation with the BOHECO duo wasn’t just informative, but also inspiring. It's these kinds of exchanges that can spark ideas and drive change. Who knows? Maybe your chat will inspire others to explore the potential of Hemp and contribute to a greener future for India.

  • Workplace anxiety is more prevalent than we might realize, silently affecting many around us. Recognizing the signs can help us support our colleagues better. Anxiety in the workplace can manifest in various ways. You might notice someone frequently complaining about headaches, fatigue, or muscle tension. They may also exhibit subtle signs like restless leg syndrome, nail-biting, or other repetitive behaviors such as constantly fidgeting, tapping their fingers, or playing with their hair. You might see them pacing, grinding their teeth, or repeatedly checking their phone or email. Emotionally, they might seem irritable, moody, or generally uneasy, often displaying a heightened sense of worry or agitation. They could be easily startled, overly sensitive to criticism, or unusually quiet and withdrawn. Behaviorally, they might avoid tasks, struggle with productivity, or aim for unrealistic perfection, sometimes staying late or coming in early to redo tasks they feel aren't good enough. You might notice them isolating themselves, missing deadlines, or hesitating to participate in meetings or group activities. Creating a supportive environment starts with encouraging open conversations about mental health. Pay attention to your colleagues' behavior and create an atmosphere where they feel safe sharing their struggles without judgment. Show empathy by offering a listening ear and understanding their challenges. If you notice a colleague struggling, offer your support. Simple actions like helping with tasks, encouraging breaks, and promoting a healthy work-life balance can alleviate anxiety. Sometimes, suggesting professional help can be the best way forward. At BOHECO, we believe in fostering a supportive workplace where mental health is a priority. We have established forums and safe spaces for openly sharing professional and emotional challenges. We are committed to creating an environment where everyone feels valued and heard. Our team thrives on empathy, understanding, and open communication. By recognizing and addressing workplace anxiety, we can create a healthier and more productive environment for everyone. Let’s work together to build workplaces filled with empathy and understanding.

  • “The market size of Hemp has grown to 80 - 100 crores.” Here, Jahan Peston Jamas in conversation with The Builders Club discloses little-known facts about how India, with its complex ecosystem, has created its own market for hemp and goods derived from it being used globally. How one decision of Indian bureaucrats standing their ground at the UN to keep 'Bhaang' outside the definition of narcotic has opened the path for this business to flourish. Today, its uses extends to textiles, pharmaceutical industry, and even bio-plastics and building materials.
