Bengaluru, 21 April 2021: It’s not every day a homegrown talent makes waves on an international platform. And that’s why today feels especially a special one, particularly for citizens of Bangalore. The city’s very own young entrepreneur, Vibha Harish, has been selected into Forbes Asia’s 30 Under 30, out of thousands of applicants from across the continent. Vibha, 25, is the owner of a startup called Cosmix – a plant-based supplements brand aimed at providing holistic health solutions to all.
Vibha is the brain behind perhaps India’s truly one of a kind venture that aims to truly drive an impact at every level in society. Cosmix, founded right before the first wave of COVID-19 took over India, has managed to not just sustain but thrive during this time. Currently, its direct to customer model is based only online. However, in just a short span of time, the brand has grown and enjoys the love and support of a very vibrant virtual community. This in part could be credited to the brand’s high-quality superfoods, its body-neutral and anti-beauty standards philosophy called ‘Health Over Aesthetics, and their impact program called Cosmix Mission Against Malnutrition. The latter is a program integrated into the brand’s supply chain itself, where in partnership with anganwadis in Karnataka, they distribute Spirulina superfoods to children struggling with malnourishment in rural areas.
Through her endeavour, Vibha is not only making good quality nutrition accessible to all, but also putting Karnataka and India on the global map!
