Questions to the Founder
Origin Story & Motivation
● Let’s go back to the start — what inspired you to open PCC? What was the
café scene in Vizag like back then? Were people ready for something like
this?
Early Days & Growth
● What were the early days like - slow build, instant hit? Do you remember
the very first item on the menu or the first item which was ordered?
● What were some of the biggest challenges in keeping a café like this
running over the years? How did you manage to keep the vibe so
consistent for so long?
Culture & Customer Connection
● PCC feels more like an emotion than a business for a lot of people - was
that intentional, or did it just evolve that way?
● Do you have any favourite memories - a proposal, a reunion, a customer
story that stuck with you?
Business Philosophy
● You’ve never really gone big on advertising - was that a conscious decision?
● What does ‘success’ mean to you when it comes to a place like PCC?
● Has the way you approach the business changed over the years - or have
the core values stayed the same?
The Future
● Are there any new plans or updates for PCC coming soon? Expansions?
New items?
● What advice would you give to someone trying to build a business that
lasts?
