Our Store & Mission
Andaman & Nicobar Islands Rural Livelihoods Mission
ANIRLM works under the Directorate of Rural Development, Panchayati Raj & Urban Local Bodies to organise rural households into self help groups, build their institutions and connect them to finance, skills and markets.
This store carries products made by those groups — cane and bamboo weaving, shell and coconut craft, terracotta, handloom and food processing — so that every purchase sends income directly back to an island household.
Vision
A poverty free Andaman & Nicobar Islands where every rural household has a dignified, resilient and diversified livelihood.
Mission
To mobilise rural poor households into strong institutions, build capacity and provide sustained access to finance, entitlements and markets.
Activities
Institution building, financial inclusion, skill development, farm and non-farm livelihoods, and marketing support through the SARAS platform.
