About Us
At Ugaoo, we've always believed plants are more than décor — they're companions, healers, and reminders of what truly matters. What began as a small idea sparked by a plant on a windowsill has grown into India's leading gardening brand, backed by marquee investors like DSG Consumer Partners and V3 Ventures.
