From selling 700 packaged drinking water bottles daily in 2010 to 20 lakh bottles daily, Clear Pani is redefining India’s packaged drinking water segment through sustainability, quality and innovation. After clocking an astounding growth rate at 143% Y-O-Y in 2021, the company is eyeing 300 crores in revenue by 2023. 

Founded in 2005 by Nayan Shah, Clear Pani built its stronghold over the segment brick-by-brick. Bagging the first contract with LEADING Caterers, winning the tender of erstwhile Air India, Mariott Group of Hotels and opening the first manufacturing facility in Ahmedabad in 2015 were among its key milestones. It is also credited with pioneering the concept of square-shaped bottles with co-branding in India. 

“At Clear Pani, quality and innovation are two formidable pillars of our core philosophy. We have witnessed phenomenal growth in the past few years, and we are now eyeing 300 crores in revenue by 2023 and 1000 crores by 2025-2026. The company’s latest venture, with backward integration from its bottling facility to control the quality of raw materials such as Pet preforms and HDPE caps made from virgin material to ensure bottle strength, quality & hygiene,” said Nayan Shah, Managing Director, Clear Pani.
