Founded by Dr. Saroj Chand and Prajwal Chand, Nepalaya Gateway Pvt. Ltd. was created to bridge Nepal’s untapped potential with the growing global demand for ethical, transparent, and sustainable sourcing.
We come from both worlds — grounded in Nepal’s entrepreneurial spirit, and inspired by global trends in conscious commerce, fair trade, and digital transformation.
Dr. Saroj Chand holds a Ph.D. with specialization in Quantum Information and Enabling Technologies from the City University of New York. With research experience at globally renowned institutions such as the University of California, Berkeley, he brings strategic leadership to the company through a globally informed perspective on systems design, brand positioning, and business development. Saroj leads Nepalaya’s long-term vision, investor relations, and overall brand strategy.
Prajwal Chand completed his undergraduate degree in International Business from Finland and earned his MBA from King’s College, Nepal (affiliated with Westcliff University, USA). Prajwal leads day-to-day operations, manages partner relationships, and oversees supply chain coordination. Prajwal focuses on fostering transparent sourcing practices and building ethical, community-centered production networks across Nepal.
Together, we are building Nepalaya Gateway as a platform for transformation — where Nepalese craftsmanship meets global opportunity, guided by integrity, innovation, and inclusive growth.
