Growing up in Andhra Pradesh, Suresh and his brother Shiva watched their father successfully run a local kirana store for over 20 years. Retail was in their blood, but Suresh first chose an engineering path and worked in private companies for two and a half years, while Shiva pursued a BBA. Suresh had lived in Bangalore for four years and always wished to bring his family’s retail roots to the big city. The real turning point came when Shiva completed his BBA and joined Suresh in Bangalore. With his brother by his side, and Shiva even enrolling in an MBA to sharpen his business skills, Suresh found the perfect partner to start a retail business.
Together, the brothers connected with J24 to turn their long-held family dream into reality. To help the young entrepreneurs hit the ground running, J24 provided end-to-end setup guidance, modern POS tech, and reliable daily inventory supply. Having this strong backend foundation meant Suresh and Shiva didn’t have to worry about stock management or supply delays. Shiva could balance his MBA studies while managing store operations, and Suresh could focus on building strong customer relationships in their new neighborhood.
Their hard work paid off. Today, Suresh and Shiva proudly run J24 – Sri Ganeshwara, bringing their family’s 20-year retail legacy into the modern era. By combining their father’s traditional business values, higher education, and J24’s continuous operational backup, the brothers have built a stable enterprise together. Suresh’s story proves that with family unity and the right support system, anyone can build a successful business and carry their legacy forward.
