Delhish, launched in 2015 by Dipesh, is a young company, but one that is founded on age-old values of quality and service. Dipesh began thinking about Delhish last year when he brought Indian sweets for his partner Rosie’s family the first time he met them. It turned out to be the first time they tried Indian sweets. They loved them. And Dipesh, but that’s another story. Dipesh had been thinking of starting something for some time, something creative, something different from his comfortable sales role, hence Delhish was born.
Dipesh soon started to realise just how few of his friends and colleagues had never tried Indian sweets. Indeed how few Brits outside of British Asian communities had tried them, despite Indian curry often being voted Britain’s favourite dish. So Dipesh turned Indian Willy Wonka and started giving his friends and colleagues a taste of what they had been missing. He has to say that the reactions of these self-confessed ‘mithai virgins’ at the sight, smell and taste of his beloved Indian sweets didn’t really surprise him. Just like his girlfriend and her family, they loved them. It was then that he knew that he had a higher calling: to share the joy of Indian sweets with the whole of Britain. So he took a break from his corporate city job in pursuit of this adventure. It’s an adventure that has taken him back to his family’s roots in India, which his mother called home before she moved to Britain at the age of nine, where Dipesh was later born.
Delhish was ran successfully for one and half years before returning to his previous role in the private sector for personal reasons. Through this experience Dipesh has proved to himself that he has a creative side and is now in search of his next adventure whereby he hopes to utilise his new found passion for creativity.
