Sunita Kour, A PMP Certified Ex IT Project Manager who turned into an Entrepreneur back in 2015
About Sunita
Born in Kashmir region of India, Sunita travelled across globe for her education, profession, business and Passion. Her broad mindedness and the way she was raised always helped her accept things differently and welcome the changes for betterment of the society.
Her Story
Sunita always believed in adding values, creating, innovating at one free will & making a difference. Throughout her journey of life, Sunita always felt that accepting Women as a Leader faces a lot of resistance in the society at work or otherwise. Sunita considers this as the biggest failure of the society not being able to utilise the skills and capacities of women while living in male dominated society. Facing criticism at work, in the society and almost everywhere when she stood out as a woman made her rethink on her dreams and goals after she was a mother. Despite of her 7 figure secure income and lavish life as a professional growing much faster in her career compared to others, Sunita decided to re-invent the wheel and create a foundation where women are heard and valued.
Her idea
As a patriotic person, Sunita decided to choose Tea business Vs other higher revenue generating businesses for being known and valued as proud Indian venture. This takes the most special product of India across globe in the purest form. Sunita along with her partner, Supinder Singh, who is an Ex Marketing & Sales professional, laid the Foundation of Techies Time to Tea as a Startup supporting Ecosystem in India.
Her business
The brand operates from 12+ locations PAN India through multi model setups that are suitable to the location and serves more than 10000 Cups of Tea through offline stores and roughly 20000 Cups through online aggregators monthly. The mission is not yet accomplished as brand plans to expand globally with around 50 stores operating within the next 2 years and offering employment to around 250 People through offline stores.
Techies Time to Tea offers around 20 in house Tea blends already available in retail out of which Masala Chai, Rose Green Tea & Lemongrass are a Big Hit in Zurich, Adlisswil, Basel and Lucerne in Switzerland. Sunita has launched Basel’s 1st official Tea Room in February 2020 with plans to offer all Indian Teas to serve as well as on shelves. With the kick off of 1st Store in Switzerland, Sunita plans to start Chai Delivery in Switzerland and bring on board a new concept of offering piping Hot Teas in homes.
The online Tea Room of the brand has already been launched in Switzerland receiving orders for Tea Packs every alternate day from across the Europe. Sunita is now raising funds to expand in Switzerland the way she has planned to.
