About the Founders
Sandeep Goyal
Born and brought up in Mathura, India (Birthplace of Lord Krishna). He spent his entire childhood in the surroundings of cows. He always had a great amount of respect for the cows in a spiritual way. He left Mathura for his studies and eventually moved to the USA in 2003 to build his career. He co-founded a software consulting company which has presence in multiple countries now. He realized the power of the cows, when he treated himself with Panchagavya for a chronic disease that he developed in his early forties. He then decided to make products from Indigenous cows available to all the people in USA.
Brahma Swami
Originally from Varanasi (the place of Lord Shiva), raised in Mumbai. He always had cows at his home and his father would always keep him informed about the value of cows. He came to the USA in 1986 to make his living and established himself in the real estate business. Though he established himself in the USA, he always missed the presence of the cows which were part of his childhood life.
When Brahma Swami and Sandeep met each other, without wasting any more time they started working on this initiative whole heartedly.
