Description
Fulva, founded by Sanu Muhammed, Shabas NC, Thasreef Ali P K, and Irfan Safar S, is building India's first dedicated halwa brand starting with the 500-year-old Calicut halwa. The company has attracted investment from Aman Gupta, co-founder of boAt and Shark Tank India judge, to preserve traditional recipes while introducing innovation and modern packaging. Fulva aims to position halwa as a gifting option, everyday indulgence, and premium dessert across regional and modern varieties. The four college friends transitioned from tech careers to the confectionery business after recognizing the lack of branding in traditional regional halwas.
