ZIVRA is a specialized tobacco brand registered and manufactured by Univac Furncrafts Pvt. Ltd. While the parent company often has diverse business interests, the ZIVRA line focuses on the production and distribution of traditional Indian bidis.

Brand Profile: ZIVRA Bidi:

  • Manufacturer: Univac Furncrafts Pvt. Ltd.

  • Product Type: Hand-rolled bidis (tobacco wrapped in tendu leaf).

  • Market Positioning: Positioned as a commercial tobacco product, adhering to standard manufacturing practices for the bidi industry.

  • Compliance: As a registered brand, it operates under the statutory regulations governing tobacco products in its region, including mandatory health warnings and taxation (GST).

Key Characteristics:

  • Hand-Rolled Tradition: ZIVRA bidis follow the traditional manufacturing process, utilizing sun-dried tobacco flakes and hand-wrapped leaves.

  • Distribution: Primarily available through wholesale and retail tobacco channels within the Indian domestic market.

  • Brand Identity: Managed by Univac Furncrafts, ensuring a level of corporate oversight in a sector often dominated by unorganized small-scale players.

Note: As with all tobacco products, ZIVRA bidis are subject to strict public health regulations. Their sale is prohibited to minors, and they carry significant health risks associated with tobacco consumption.

Herbal / Nicotine-Free Bidi:

The herbal bidi produced by Univac Furncrafts (often marketed under brands like Bliss or in partnership with specialized herbal labels) reimagines the 19th-century "smoking stick" as a wellness-oriented alternative. Unlike traditional bidis that rely on sun-cured tobacco, these are crafted using a blend of therapeutic herbs.

Composition and Craftsmanship

The product maintains the authentic form factor of a traditional bidi but replaces the internal tobacco with a proprietary herbal blend.

  • The Wrapper: They continue to use the natural Tendu leaf (Diospyros melanoxylon). These leaves are hand-picked, sun-dried, and expertly rolled, acting as a natural organic filter.

  • The Filler: A curated mixture of rare Indian herbs, which often includes ingredients like Basil (Tulsi), Clove, Licorice, and Turmeric.

  • Manufacturing: The bidis are roasted in controlled ovens to remove moisture, ensuring a consistent burn and a stiff, durable structure.     

                                

Key Product Benefits
