A lot can happen over coffee. Ask Chennai cheese entrepreneurs Anuradha Krishnamoorthy and Namrata Sundaresan. Six months ago, Sundaresan had completed a short course in cheesemaking during a farm stay in Acres Wild, Coonoor, in November 2015. Even as she was pondering what next, Krishnamoorthy with a background in social ventures met her over coffee to brainstorm on how best to skill-train differently abled girls. The answer, they both realised, lay in cheesemaking.
So in August 2016, Sundaresan began training two girls with hearing impairment to make cheese. Over the month about five kinds of cheese were made. Friends, families and fellow foodies couldn’t be more thrilled. Lady Luck smiled too. Next month, the duo was invited to participate in a pop-up. In a day’s time a logo, website, stickers, packaging, etc was put together, and Käse was in business.
