Our story begins not with a business plan, but with a dream and a dash of resilience. Our founder, Nisha Adhikari, faced significant hurdles, from a lack of formal education to a series of business setbacks. But instead of being defeated, she found her true passion in the kitchen. She realized that her real strength was in creating beautiful, delicious food and that the most crucial ingredient wasn't a spice, but the love she put into every dish.
This passion led her to found Maya Ra Masala. The name itself is a tribute to this journey, translating to "spices of love." We built this company not on money, but on the unwavering belief that authentic, natural flavors can connect people and tell a story. This post will take you through Nisha’s personal journey, sharing the struggles and the triumphs that shaped our brand. It’s a story of turning setbacks into a purpose and proving that a little bit of love can create something extraordinary.
