And can a nearly collapsed company be rebuilt to achieve ₹150 crore+ in revenue? In this Josh Talks video, meet Aakash Agrawal, Founder of ZOFF, who left his family's steel business and entered the spice industry in 2018. The dream was big, but aggressive expansion across 17 states, a 300-member sales team, and heavy marketing expenses pushed the company to the brink of collapse. In just three years, ZOFF suffered losses of around ₹30 crore and was almost at zero by 2021. Things became so difficult that Aakash once couldn't even step out of his car at a family function, fearing people would ask about his business. But that is where the real comeback began. Instead of asking, "Why did this happen to us?", Aakash asked, "How can we change this?" That mindset led ZOFF to completely rethink its business model. The company pivoted from offline sales to online and e-commerce, unlocking rapid growth. After raising funding on Shark Tank India and ₹40 crore in Series A funding, ZOFF went on to achieve ₹150 crore+ in revenue in FY26. In this video, Aakash shares the 4 key pillars that helped rebuild ZOFF: a strong mindset, using money wisely, surrounding yourself with the right people, and maintaining founder control over the business. Watch till the end to discover the 4 pillars that helped rebuild ZOFF.
