The startup's journey began in Gwalior, where Mahanaryaman personally visits local markets, incognito, to procure fresh produce. MyMandi then sells this inventory to last-mile delivery partners, such as street vendors and cart pushers, optimizing the potential of the local "thelawalla" community. Their vision extends beyond fruits and vegetables, aiming to include daily essentials in their offerings.
In addition to his entrepreneurial endeavours, Mahanaryaman is making an impact in the realm of sports. Recently appointed as the Deputy Chairman of the Gwalior Division Cricket Association, he has ambitious plans to launch the Madhya Pradesh Premier League within the next 2-3 months.
The league will feature five teams and aims to bridge the gap between business, cricket, and the public. Mahanaryaman envisions a platform that not only provides entertainment but also serves as a pathway for talented players from villages to reach the national level. Players will receive employment opportunities and remuneration for their participation in the league, which will be broadcasted on television, further amplifying its reach and impact.
With his diverse interests and commitment to driving positive change, Mahanaryaman Scindia is carving out a unique legacy for himself, blending entrepreneurship, social impact, and sportsmanship in his pursuits. Through MyMandi and the Madhya Pradesh Premier League, he is poised to make a lasting mark on both the agricultural and sports landscapes of India.
