Our Brand faced the brunt of tough times just to bounch back with greater force

Feb, 2016

We lost our Mother Store in Jayanagar due to some unavoidable market situation, though we bounced back quickly by opening another store in Jayanagar by the end of the year.

The next success for us as a brand happened when Students took franchises and became successful entrepreneurs.
