 HISTORY
 
    In the 40’s, Late Sri Dina Nath Saraff, our founder father planted the seed of Everest Group starting his own import-export firm “ Brij Mohan Dina Nath” in Janakpur, which dealt initially  in the import of clothing materials from India, Soda Ash and various kinds of spices from Malaysia & Indonesia and export of rice to India. Janakpur (birthplace of Goddess Sita, according to the epic, Ramayana) was then a very small medieval settlement amidst disease infested forest. This firm was to be the embryo of the present group.    
                                                           
    He had subsequently acquired the sole agency of ESSO and of Brooke Bond tea in the 50’s & 60’s for Nepal and started marketing their petroleum products such as, Petrol, Diesel, LDO, engine oil, Kerosene oil etc. and tea respectively.  By mid 60’s he established another firm “ Everest Trading Company” along with the JhunJhunwalas in Biratnagar, and started exporting Jute to millers in India.    
                         
    It was in the late 60’s that our founder father showed his charisma in opening the door for industrialization when he established “Janakpur Soap Factory”, manufacturing various grades of soap and marketing it under the famous brand name “Natraj” and “OX”.    
                                                           
    In the 70’s, our founder along with his son’s assistance established “Everest Cardboard Industry Pvt. Ltd.”, first in the country to manufacture corrugated boxes from Kraft paper imported from India and Sweden.  During that phase, he also established “Tiger Tea Company”. Tea was imported from India, blended and packed in Nepal and marketed to the Nepalese consumers in the brand name “Tiger”.    
                                                           
    Thereafter, under our founder’s leadership, his great vision & strong determination mingled with his son’s assistance,  the group continued to grow in its industrial and commercial endeavours. With investments in well-diversified industries and a  decicated management team, Everest Group stands as one of the foremost industrial & trading houses in the Himalayan Kingdom.
