History

The history of Damodardas Bhagwandas Sugandhi dates back to the non-independent era of India from the late 18th century.

The ancestors of Damodardas Bhagwandas Sugandhi resettled from Vadnagar Gujarat to Pune. In Pune, they established the incense manufacturing business to see their name carved in the literature of fragrances.

Momentarily, they became one of the well-known manufactures and retailers of incense sticks and fragrances all across the nation. Extending the aroma of their triumph, in 1872 the firm was established as Damodardas Bhagwandas Sugandhi in Raviwar Peth, Pune. In the forthcoming years, the business was entrusted with the next generation of Shri Purshottamdas Gokuldas Sugandhi. The house of royal dynasties and kingdoms became esteemed customers. From spiritual occasions to festivities, Damodardas Bhagwandas Sugandhi became a name of the households passionate about fragrances. Soon the fragrances spread across the seas with exports to European and African nations.

Eventually, the son of Purshottamdas Gokuldas Sugandhi – Vithaldas Purshottamdas Sugandhi held the legacy of fragrances ahead. Today, Damodardas Bhagwandas Sugandhi has evolved through a journey of a century and a half. An institution that stands being a vivid spectator to transformations of historical people, lives, social events, and fragrances.
