NOri · Bhutan · Est. 2025

Bhutan’s first digital plant marketplace.

NOri connects Bhutan's growers, nurseries, and plant lovers — bringing indigenous and rare Himalayan flora to a marketplace built for the way Bhutan grows.

NOri · The opportunity

A botanical nation without a botanical marketplace.

Bhutan sits inside one of the planet's ten biodiversity hotspots — carbon-negative, more than seventy percent forest, home to plants found nowhere else on Earth. Yet its growers and nurseries have never had a shared, trusted place to reach the people who want what they grow. NOri is building that place: a marketplace that treats provenance, care, and indigenous species as first-class.
