What Makes it Awesome

If you've found yourself making sustainable swaps in your lifestyle, then we have a new store for you to check out in Hyderabad to really kick off your zero-waste journey. Apparel, bags, skincare and groceries—we found them all under one roof at Gāiaa Living in Jubilee Hills.

Gāaia Living curates sustainable products from close to thirty brands based in India to offer everything from cleaning supplies, groceries, skincare, bags and to even fashion. We found fabric softeners, laundry detergent, floor and surface cleaners stored in cute stainless steel containers on the ground floor. What we loved is how you're encouraged to bring your own bottles so you can fill them up with the cleaners, if you don't or can't carry re-usable bottles, you can purchase them at the store. We also spotted several grains, varieties of rice, poha and cooking essentials sourced from farmers in Telangana. 

If you love personal care products and have been looking to cut out toxic chemicals from your routine, then be sure to check out the extensive collection at Gāiaa Living. We found skincare, body care and hair care products from several Indie brands.

There's a section for kids' wear too! Our favourite part of the store was the extensive apparel and accessories section. We found chic laptop sleeves, mobile cases, sling bags, box bags, wallets and laptop cases. The coolest part was that they're all made from sustainable materials like apple, cacti skin leather, coconut fibre, and hemp which, as you know are all sustainable materials. We also found some easy-breezy summer dresses made up of 100% organic cotton—and definitely went to town shopping for the summer. While we spotted sample sizes at the store, we were told that different sizes can be made available on order.

The founder, Sphoorthi Pemmasani wanted to foster a community of like-minded people who are passionate about climate change through the store. Gāaia Living regularly organises events centered around sustainable practices like flea markets and donation drives partnering with local brands, to showcase them through the store. Follow them on Insta for regular updates, and shop away!
