In this episode of the Startup CPG Podcast, Caitlin Bricker speaks with Tabi and Meena Hoshmand, co-founders of Tursh, a bold, Afghan-inspired green chutney born from a treasured family recipe. The sisters share their journey from idea to shelf, discussing the cultural significance behind the word Tursh, the influence of their mother’s cooking, and their vision to bring Afghan flavors to a broader audience.

With backgrounds in marketing and medicine, and operating from opposite coasts, Tabi and Meena offer insight into the realities of building a bootstrapped food brand from scratch.
