PASSIONATE ABOUT REGENERATIVE FARMING (ORGANIC FARMING), FOOD & SUSTAINABILITY? JOIN OUR STARTUP.
Tazawan is looking for Co-Founders & Business Partners (with Investment).
We have spent years building the foundation of ‘Tazawan Organic Farms’ Agri , starting with our journey through Sendriya Farmz working closely with Farmers, developing natural and regenerative farming practices, creating market linkages, building supply networks and developing a trusted food business.
Now, we are looking for a few like-minded, passionate and entrepreneurial people to join us in the next phase, people who are ready to learn, take ownership, execute, solve problems and grow with Tazawan.

About the Founders
M. Showri Jojappa — Founder
Practicing Natural Farmer and Entrepreneur with deep hands-on experience in Organic Farming, farmer development, sustainable agriculture, food processing and Farm-to-Consumer businesses. Started natural farming on a 10-acre farm in 2015 and, after a 12-year corporate career, moved full-time into agriculture and entrepreneurship in 2018.
Through Sendriya Farmz, built extensive experience working with farmers, FPOs, tribal communities and natural farming initiatives, including farmer training, sustainable production, sourcing and market linkages.
Showri was selected as a Semi-Finalist at IIT Bombay's Eureka entrepreneurship programme and was incubated through MANAGE – Centre for Agri Innovation (CIA), Govt of India (Got 10 Lakhs Grant) and Deshpande Startups. He also got selected and underwent entrepreneurship and startup development programmes and training through IIT Bombay, IIM Bangalore, MANAGE and Deshpande Startups.
To strengthen his understanding of food value addition, he completed a 2-month hands-on in-house training programme at CFTRI, Mysore, on value-added product production from fruits and vegetables. Following this training, he established and operated a small food-processing unit in Cherlapally, Hyderabad for approximately two years, gaining practical experience in production, processing, operations and commercialization. The unit was subsequently closed as the business was relatively capital-intensive, providing valuable entrepreneurial and capital-efficiency learning.
He also completed a 2-month certificate course in Import & Export from the Indian Institute of Foreign Trade (IIFT), New Delhi, strengthening his understanding of international trade and future export opportunities.
Krishna Veni — Co-Founder
Spent nearly two years working and living with tribal communities in Araku, with experience in sustainable sourcing, post-harvest handling, value addition and livelihood-oriented community work.
Together, Showri and Krishna Veni combine agricultural experience, tribal community engagement, sustainable food systems and entrepreneurial execution to build Tazawan.
