From Kerala, with care.
Food. Fresh produce. Traditional wear. Handicrafts. Home. Gifts.
A little piece of home
I'm Sharanya Nair, born and brought up in Pune, but Kerala has always been an important part of home for me.
Growing up away from Kerala, there was one small challenge that kept repeating itself. Whenever I wanted something that felt truly authentic — a favourite snack, a particular ingredient, something traditional for the home, or a special find from Kerala — I would often wait for a trip back home, bring it with me, or ask family and friends travelling from Kerala to carry it for me.

Closer to home
Little Kerala is my attempt to bring all of that a little closer to home.
We're starting online, right here in Pune, carefully bringing together food, fresh produce, traditional wear, handicrafts, home décor and gifts that celebrate Kerala.
And someday, I hope Little Kerala becomes a place you can actually walk into — a little piece of Kerala, right here in Pune.

The idea
And that simple question eventually became the idea behind Little Kerala.
I wanted to create a place where people like me wouldn't have to wait for their next Kerala trip — or someone's suitcase — to enjoy the things they love.
But I also didn't want Little Kerala to be just another grocery store.
Kerala is so much more than what's in our kitchen. It's the smell of freshly made banana chips, Nendran bananas on the counter, a beautiful Kasavu saree, the glow of a nilavilakku, spices from home, handcrafted treasures, familiar flavours and the little things that instantly remind you of Kerala.
“Is this really the same thing I would bring back from Kerala?”
