• For centuries, the Himalayas have been an icon of aspiration, of man's quest to unlock Nature's secrets.

• They represent purity and lofty ideals.

• The fact that the Himalayas are the source of many of the herbs that are used in our products, makes our brand name all the more appropriate.

• Our logo is a visual definition of our brand identity.

• The leaf that forms the crossbar of the letter H evokes our focus on herbal healthcare.

History

 

In 1955, Himalaya introduced Liv. 52, a liver formulation that ensures optimum liver function.

The product soon became our flagship brand and a top selling herbal medicine.

Other brands soon followed including Cystone, Bonnisan and Rumalaya forte, products that went on to become household names.

In 1999, Himalaya entered the personal care segment under the brand name 'Ayurvedic Concepts'.

A year later, we expanded our portfolio to include animal health products with the objective of caring for the health and well-being of animals.

With our expanding range of products and growth in international markets, Himalaya underwent a rebranding where the entire range was brought under a single umbrella- Himalaya Herbal Healthcare.

With the present portfolio of pharmaceuticals, personal care, baby care, well-being and animal health products, Himalaya has evolved into a 'head-to-heel' herbal wellness company.

After close to 80 years, we remain committed to enriching the lives of people who use our products.

Today, the Himalaya brand is synonymous with safe and efficacious herbal products.

Starting off operations in Dehradun way back in the 1930s, the company later spread its wings to Mumbai and across the country.

In 1975, the company set up an advanced manufacturing facility in Makali, Bangalore, India. In 1991, the company relocated its R&D facility to Bangalore.

We operate in over 90 countries, our products are prescribed by 400,000 doctors worldwide, and millions of customers trust us for their health and personal care needs. Himalaya Global Holdings Ltd. (HGH) is the parent of all Himalaya subsidiaries.
