Born in Parappur, a small hamlet in Trichur, Kerala, Kochouseph began his career as a trainee supervisor in an electric and electronic manufacturing company after completing his Post Graduation in Physics. After a short stint in the company, he forayed into entrepreneurship by starting a small scale stabilizer under the brand name V-Guard in Kochi, Kerala. Through years of hard work and uncompromising commitment to quality of his products, V-Guard grew and became a trusted electric and electronic brand across India. His innovative mind went on to realize a chain of magnificent amusement Parks by the name Wonderla in Kochi, Bengaluru and Hyderabad. Veegaland Developers is another venture that was born out of Mr. Kochouseph’s passion for construction in the apartment division.
