Suvarna heads Sarvesh Industries, a company that deals with manufacturing of corrugated boxes and sheets. The company also specialized in craft and duplex paper cartons required for packing purpose and supplies these to various large
manufacturing industries.
Operating in a business that is usually male-dominated didn’t come easy. Suvarna had to fight off stereotypes associated with women in a Tier 2 town and this particular industry. Securing funding for the venture too wasn’t easy. Even today, quite often she is referred to Mr. Deshpande – a clear reflection of the male bastions she has broken into.
