Our Journey


At the age of 7, when he lost his father, he lost his childhood too. He would try to support his mother’s efforts to make both ends meet for him and his little brother. Meet Mr. Haribhau Kulkarni – founder of the famous tea network – Harman Chahawala.

Haribhau’s mother used to spend nights near a temple on the ghats of Krishna River in Sangli along with her small children. All her children could learn from life was endless struggle. But Haribhau picked undying spirit from his mother. He used to learn from the ups and downs of the life with positive attitude. For him work was worship and the sky was the limit to his work.

While running a small canteen near the court in Sangli, he introduced the concept of a food truck to Sanglikars in the form of ‘Hari Ka Khana Khazana’. He worked relentlessly in the food industry and did many ventures from running a mess of 3000 students in a day boarding as well as a canteen at Bharati Medical College, ‘Hanuman’ – a restaurant serving hundreds of varieties of Dosa and an out of the box restaurant called ‘Sips & Snacks’ and later on the most loved hot tea brand – Harman Chahawala.

In India, tea is not just a drink. It’s a culture. It’s a gesture. It’s a reason why people meet and talk. Tea is blended seamlessly into Indian culture. Haribhau started an outlet that would serve hot and fresh tea with a unique taste named Harman Chahawala. The splendid taste was picked up so well that he had to open a chain of Harman Chahawala across the city. Later on, the brand reached in many parts of Maharashtra and then in other states too.

Harman Chahawala is a pleasant place to hang out and enjoy tea or coffee. Today, this taste is available in over 100 outlets across Maharashtra. It also has crossed the borders of the state and has made a mark in the states like Goa, Karnataka and Kerala.
The taste of hot Harman Tea is an outcome of Haribhau’s reseach of many years. He’s travelled various parts of the country to understand the taste of the tea lovers. He developed his own masala blend after endless trials. No wonder, Harman Chahawala reserves a special position in the tea lovers’ hearts.

All the outlets are managed in a very professional way. They have the uniform outlook. All the staff wears a specific dress code and is well trained. Cleanliness is the key here that makes the tea lovers visit often to these outlets. It is authenticated by the prestigious ISO 9001-22005 & DAC (Dubai Accreditation) certification for Harman’s working.
