Slurrp Farm

Slurrp Farm is a leading Indian food brand, founded by two mothers, for children and their families. They have made it their mission to provide tasty and 100% natural alternatives to the junk food that surrounds families today. Slurrp Farm has been able to incorporate Indian food traditions into their recipes, use the best possible ingredients such as millets, lentils, real fruit and vegetables, and create a unique and distinctive brand identity. The recipes always start at home and they perfect them in consultation with nutritionists and pediatricians, to make them healthy and tasty! Slurrp Farm is founded by Meghana Narayan and Shauravi Malik. Meghana is passionate about children’s nutrition and health and is keen to make a dent on India’s appalling malnutrition statistics. Her incessant effort to feed Miss Nandita (her 4 year old) healthy food by making it taste great, led her to start this venture. Prior to her activities at Slurrp Farm, she was an Associate Principal at McKinsey & Company in Delhi where she led the public health practice. She also swam competitively for India for many years, including at the Asian Games and she sincerely hopes that better nutrition for India’s children will result in more golden Olympic medals! Shauravi Malik' s passion is to get her son Roshen (and hopefully other little tots like him) to gobble up all the exciting food ideas that are brimming in her own kitchen. In her previous avatar, she brings over ten years of experience as a finance professional. She worked in the Consumer, Healthcare and Retail Advisory team and the Leveraged Finance team at J.P. Morgan, and was an Investment Manager at Sir Richard Branson’s Group Holding entity at the Virgin Group in London.
