Chocopo, an ice cream company run by Shri Shyam Kumar since 1985, now had its management change to his two daughters, who came in and wanted to experiment with a lot of flavors. They introduced 21 new flavors in a span of 6 months while not losing out of 2 legendary flavors of their dad i.e. Stick Kulfi and Mango Bar. After year 1 of operations, 9 out of the 21 flavors had to be stopped, while 10 flavors were still kept, extending the experimentation.
