Good rice should be traceable, consistent and fairly traded.
DHANVIK is a rice marketplace that connects trusted partner mills directly with wholesalers and retailers, with quality checks, clear pricing and fixed delivery dates at every step.
We saw the problem up close
Non-basmati rice in India still moves through a chain of brokers. Price is unclear, quality is never graded the same way twice, and delivery dates are a promise nobody keeps. Mills wait for payment. Retailers call three or four people to ask about the same rice.
We did not want to just comment on it. We wanted to fix it, from the paddy to the packet.
What we believe
When price, quality and delivery are clear and checked, nobody needs a middleman to vouch for the rice, and everyone gets paid fairly and on time.
Three things, done properly
Partner mills
We work with mills we know and trust, so you get rice from reliable sources at fair, transparent prices.
Quality you can count on
Every lot is checked before it moves, and mills are held accountable for what they send. Quality is tied to price.
Reliable delivery
Fixed delivery dates, flexible pack sizes and one clear point of contact instead of calling four different brokers.
The person behind DHANVIK
SIDDHARTHA ROY
Founder, DHANVIKI have spent more than three years working inside the rice trade, learning how it really runs: who pays late, where quality slips, and why retailers never get the same rice twice. DHANVIK is my answer to what I kept seeing.

- 3+ years of hands-on work in the rice industry
- Based in Arambagh, Hooghly, West Bengal
An engineer's eye for process and a finance mindset for numbers: that is how we run DHANVIK, as a marketplace built on trust between mills and buyers.
Built on relationships, not middlemen
We do not start from zero. We already know the millers, and we already know the people who sell rice every day. These are personal relationships built over years of working side by side, and they are why our partner mills trust us with their rice and buyers trust us with their orders.
Let's talk rice
Whether you run a mill and want to become a partner, or a store or wholesale business looking for dependable rice, we would like to hear from you.
