History
Himalaya was founded by Muhammad Manal in 1930 he was inspired to start the company after encountering a local herbalist during a visit to Burma (now Myanmar), who provided him with a recipe for a liver tonic that had helped his father. This encounter sparked his interest in herbal remedies and motivated him to create a company dedicated to harnessing the healing power of herbs. Under his leadership, Himalaya has grown into a well-known and respected brand in the field of herbal healthcare and personal care products.
The company then introduced its first product Liv.52 herbal tonic for liver based on the herbal formula. Over the years, Himalaya expanded its product range and began developing formulations based on the principles of Ayurveda, a traditional system of medicine in India.
