At 60, when most people are planning their retirement, Ms. Sarita is just getting started. Her journey from home cook to entrepreneur isn't just inspiring—it's deliciously unconventional.
"I never saw age as a barrier," she often says with a warm smile. "Food has always been my language of love, and I simply decided it was time for more people to experience that.
Her passion, ignited in a Mumbai kitchen, transformed simple sandwiches into culinary art. As a mother, she prioritized wholesome meals, deepening her dedication to healthy, satisfying food.
For decades, her culinary talents remained a family treasure. Her children grew up in a home where meals weren't just nutritious—they were events, celebrations of both tradition and innovation. Her kitchen became the heart of family gatherings, where recipes passed down through generations mingled with her own creations.
"When my children grew up and left home, I realized I still had so much to give," Ms Sarita explains. "Why keep these recipes locked away when they could bring joy to so many?"
That's when Picnic Basket was born—a bold step from household name to brand name. Now a part of UV Group—a leading luxury lifestyle group of companies in Dubai that has been rapidly expanding across South East Asia and Middle East since 2015—Sarita's home kitchen recipes have found a global audience.
