Epigamia Family Mourns Loss of Co-founder Rohan Mirchandani

Rohan Mirchandani, the co-founder of Epigamia, India’s leading Greek yogurt brand, passed away on December 21, 2024, at the age of 42 due to a sudden cardiac arrest.

The news was confirmed by Epigamia’s parent company, Drums Food International.

Epigamia Co-Founder’s Impact and Legacy

Rohan’s passing is a significant loss to the entrepreneurial community.

His leadership and vision have left a profound mark on Epigamia and the broader food industry.

The company’s senior leadership team, including Ankur Goel (COO and Founding Member) and Uday Thakker (Co-founder and Director), will continue to manage daily operations with full support from the board of directors, Rohan’s family, and key investors.

“Rohan was our mentor, friend, and leader. We remain steadfast in our determination to carry forward his dream with strength and vigor,” said Ankur and Uday in a joint statement.

The board of Epigamia also honored Rohan’s legacy, describing him as a visionary leader whose dedication and passion left a lasting impact.

Early Life, Education and Career

Rohani, an alumnus of NYU Stern and The Wharton School, co-founded Drums Food International in 2013.

Under his leadership, the company transitioned from its initial Hoki Poki ice cream line to Epigamia. The brand has since become a household name in yogurt and dairy products.

Epigamia, known for its flavored Greek yogurt, has expanded to over 20,000 retail outlets across 30 cities in India.

Rohan’s vision extended beyond India, with plans to expand into Middle East by 2025-26.

His innovative mindset and dedication to addressing the lack of innovation in India’s FMCG sector were well recognized.
