In a world where most continue to contribute to climate change, putting the lives of many at risk, successful entrepreneur and multi-business owner Saurabh Chhabra was one of the only in India to commit successfully to such an endeavor. Born in Punjab, India, an area best known for its agricultural production, Mr. Chhabra comes from an agriculturally dense background and has always had a passion for sustainability. In fact, Mr. Chhabra had always the goal of boosting sustainability efforts between his two businesses, Krishna Agro Industries, which does rice shelling for the Government of India, and Chhabra Agro Industries, an organization that produces mint oil using a distillation and extraction technique.
Although some companies make false, inaccurate claims about their zero-waste initiatives while doing more harm than good for the environment, Saurabh Chhabra made changes that bolster positive change, protecting many lives in the Indian Ecosystem. Known for his love of nature, his business innovation, and his naturally pleasant demeanor, his ability to communicate well with others is unmatched and enables him to strengthen his zero-waste efforts. Now, he's sharing his story of success and how he's managed to push sustainability to the forefront.
Saurabh was born into a family of businesspeople, which truly helped instill specific values that he still credits to use to this day. He developed a genuine interest in business management, ultimately opening his first business after undergrad. While understanding the fundamentals of operating a business from watching his father, he also learned how important it was to focus on improving sustainability efforts.
Because of his interest in agriculture, it didn't take long for Saurabh to understand the drastic toll climate change is taking on communities across the country and worldwide. This motivated him to start businesses that would make a difference.
As explained earlier, Saurabh has always had an interest in agriculture and sustainability. So, when the opportunity presented itself, he went for it. Chhabra Agro Industries, for example, promotes zero-waste by using any waste collected during the manufacturing of mint as an alternative for making a mixer for rough roads in rural places. In addition, they use it as a cost-effective combustible alternative to using with industrial boilers to improve sustainability efforts and stand by their commitment to zero-waste, such technic that Saurabh Chhabra was one of the first in India to implement, which places him as a top recognized expert in India.
Of course, this is just one of the many ways Mr. Chhabra leads by example and encourages others to focus on critical sustainability work. And while promoting zero-waste initiatives doesn't come without its own series of obstacles to overcome, he's always up for the challenge. He looks forward to doing anything possible to give back to society, even if that means strategizing and spending countless hours developing innovative concepts that lead to better outcomes and cost efficiency while benefiting the planet now and in the future.
In addition to his time spent running two successful businesses, both of which have garnered an important nationwide reputation for their sustainability efforts, Saurabh Chhabra also provides mentorship and coaching to those in need. Chhabra credits the success of his latest ventures to the knowledge gained over the years, watching his family of businesspeople as well as the high level of expertise developed from his impressive education and running his own businesses. Similarly, his mentorship and guidance to others allow future entrepreneurs to discover the steps needed to achieve their own goals and create profitable, sustainable businesses that thrive. He is passionate about helping people create businesses that would benefit the environment in some way or another.
