Who are the two friends from Delhi behind this dairy success story?
Founded by Chakradhar Gade and Nitin Kaushal Country Delight is a startup that delivers daily essentials including milk fruits vegetables and dairy products directly to the customers doorstep. The IIM graduates began their journey in the milk business which has now evolved into a brand providing natural and fresh foods.
Before Gade and Kaushal became successful entrepreneurs they were both in the corporate world. Their decision to go from steady jobs in corporate to starting their own business was a risk that was well worth it.
How did their small venture grow into a company worth ₹1380 crore (₹13800000000)?
Chakradhar Gade completed his studies at the Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Indore and began his professional background in the corporate world. According to the media reports he started as a Software Engineer at Infosys and spent around a year in this role before deciding to change industry. Gade had an opportunity to join Indxx Capital Management where he was the Vice President of the firm. Ultimately in 2013 Gade made another bold step to leave his highly paying corporate profession to pursue entrepreneurship.
According to the media reports Nitin Kaushal also an alumnus of IIM Indore began his career at HSBC in corporate banking. After two years Nitin decided to take the plunge into entrepreneurship and joined his classmate Chakradhar Gade in starting the company Country Delight. The two combined their business backgrounds and their vision together which helped lay the groundwork for their subsequent successes.
Initially the two friends had no prior experience. They began with 50 cows under the assumption that after two years they would have 500. Their Excel sheet estimated that their daily milk delivery would move from 200 liters to 5000 liters. However in reality it took three times as long to hit the target. It wasnt easy to find land for the cows take care of the cows and maintain the milk quality. In the end they did manage to grow in efficiency.
