Sadvaidyasala Pvt Ltd (SVL) is one of the oldest concerns manufacturing Ayurvedic medicines in Karnataka. As on 2014, it manufactures over 200 classical and proprietary Ayurvedic preparations. The company was established by Sri. B.V. Pundit (Bhishagratna Ayurveda Vidwan) in 1913 at Nanjangud, a small town near Mysore in Karnataka.
In 2014, this 100-year-old family-owned business legacy was handed over to the third generation of the family and was entirely managed by them.
The case study prepared by Team PFBI encompasses the inception of SVL from the traditional Ayurvedic texts and pharmacopeia. Some of the core domains relating to family business covered in the case study include the forethought of the founder, struggles of transitioning, identifying the ideal successor, and the role of women in the family business.
