Detais about Kishore Indukuri
The IIT Kharagpur graduate’s ambitions became a reality after he completed his
Master’s and PhD in Polymer Science and Engineering from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, and took up a job at Intel.
However, six years into his job, Kishore realised his
real passion was agriculture.
He says, “I decided to quit my job and return to my
agricultural roots. Moving back to Hyderabad, I realised that there were
limited options for affordable, unadulterated milk. I wanted to bring a change
not only for my son and my family but also for the people of Hyderabad.”
This inspired him to start his
own dairy farm and milk brand. In 2012, he bought 20 cows from
Coimbatore and set up a dairy farm in Hyderabad. Kishore started supplying milk
directly to consumers in the city on a subscription basis, and his business
began to grow.
