Kisanveer Satara Sahakari Sakhar Karkhana Ltd., Bhuinj, Taluka Wai, District Satara, is one of Maharashtra's most prominent co-operative sugar factories — born from a historic farmers' movement and built to last.
Established in 1968 under the Maharashtra Co-operative Societies Act, 1960, the factory came into being through the determined efforts of the late Freedom Fighter Kisan Mahadev Veer (Abasaheb Veer), a respected leader from Wai Taluka. His vision gave rise to a cooperative institution that empowered farmers and transformed rural livelihoods.
The establishment of Kisanveer Karkhana was the outcome of a historic farmers' movement in Wai — a movement that emphasized unity, self-reliance, and prosperity for agriculturists. Built on these values, the factory has consistently worked to ensure fair opportunities for sugarcane growers while driving socio-economic development across the region.
Under the guidance of our Chairman, Hon. Shri Makarand Laxmanrao Jadhav-Patil, MLA (Minister of Relief and Rehabilitation, Maharashtra State), and Vice Chairman Hon. Shri Pramod Bhanudas Shinde, Kisanveer Karkhana has emerged as a model of cooperative strength, technological progress, and farmer-focused development.
Recognizing the importance of sustainability and modernization, Kisanveer Karkhana has consistently invested in advanced projects across energy, ethanol and digital operations.
A 22 MW bagasse-based co-generation plant supplying green energy to the factory and the grid.
A 60 KLPD ENA plant, a 100 KLPD RS plant, and a newly commissioned 80 KLPD ethanol unit supporting India's ethanol blending programme.
ERP implementation and cane bridge automation for enhanced efficiency and transparency.
Kisanveer Karkhana is not just an industry but a legacy of cooperative spirit and farmer empowerment. Since its foundation by Kisan Mahadev Veer (Abasaheb Veer) to its present-day achievements under the leadership of Hon. Shri Makarand Jadhav-Patil, the factory remains dedicated to improving the lives of thousands of farmers, creating rural employment, and contributing to Maharashtra's industrial progress.
Deeply rooted in its values yet forward-looking in its vision, Kisanveer Karkhana continues to symbolize the enduring power of unity, cooperation, and progress.
The strength of Kisanveer Satara Sahakari Sakhar Karkhana lies in its visionary leadership. Our Board of Directors represents a collective of dedicated individuals who bring decades of experience in agriculture, cooperative governance, and industrial growth — ensuring prosperity for our farmers, sustainability for our operations, and progress for our communities.
