Janakiram and Kokila built their life together in Bangalore over 19 years of marriage, constantly striving to create a better future for their family. Janakiram began his career as a car driver for ten years, stepped up as an in-charge at a car showroom, and later gained valuable experience in retail before joining J24 as a store audit executive. Kokila worked across printing presses, garment factories, and More Retail as store staff before joining J24 as store staff as well. Having spent over five years mastering retail operations from the ground up, the couple shared a strong ambition to start a retail business of their own.
Seeking reliable low investment business opportunities that could bring true financial independence to their household, Janakiram and Kokila recognized the potential of the Giant ownership model firsthand. Partnering with J24 provided end-to-end store setup, modern inventory technology, and daily stock replenishment support. Stepping into the modern kirana store sector with full confidence, they transitioned smoothly from store employees into proud store owners. Their three children stepped up to support daily operations, turning the business into a true family venture.
Today, Janakiram and Kokila proudly operate J24 – Sowmya Essentials in Kodichikanahalli, running a flourishing neighborhood store together. For over three years, their store has delivered steady growth, financial stability, and daily pride to their household. Janakiram’s story proves that with hands-on experience, family teamwork, and the right partner in your corner, anyone can build a successful business and secure lasting prosperity.
