Tell us about yourself
I qualified as a Chartered Accountant in the year 2000 and started my career at PepsiCo Food in their planning function.
I worked on a project to set up a Greenfield food factory as the Commercial Head of that factory and ran dispatch, transport, store procurements, IT, and Finance for the factory. Later on, I worked in the Sales Finance function. It was a great experience.
After almost 8 years at PepsiCo, in late 2008, I started working for Yum! Brands – they own KFC and Pizza Hut. I led their Controlling function, Planning Strategy, and also led Business Development. As its Business Development Director, I built 300 stores for Yum in the subcontinent.
