“We have started a small farm with the help of techies and a few of our friends last year. Once we started selling the produce, it occurred to us why not start an organic shop. Though the market price differs, we have decided to fix it,” said Shiraz Ansari, CEO, Grid Designs Solutions to TechnoparkToday- the founder and idea behind krishipura.

“We are sourcing the fruits and vegetables locally, and we are sourcing the milk also from the local farms. many techies are in need of authentic cow milk, since people are not happy with the most of the cover milk available in the market, we have customers from most of the companies within technopark” – said Sunil Shamsudeen, the floor manager of krishipura
