Entrepreneur in Kochi, Kerala
I am an Entrepreneur currently living in Kochi, Kerala. My interests range from entrepreneurship to innovation.
From a very young age, entrepreneurship has been a passion. I took my first step towards fulfilling my passion way back in 1999, when I decided to start up a Computer Centre(Cynet Technologies) in Edappally, Kochi, Kerala, offering internet services and basic computer education to students. I was myself a student back then.
Later, I moved to Bangalore for my higher education and in the year 2004 I joined Hewlett Packard, Bangalore, as a BMS administrator and worked for one year.
This was followed by a move to Bharti Airtel as the Head of the Department for broadband installation and the support wing for the state of Kerala.
In the year 2008, I moved to Tata Teleservices as HOD( Installations and repair-Kerala) and worked for nearly 5 years.
It was during this tenure while still in TATA , that the entrepreneur inside me got restless and I started seeking out opportunities in right earnest and in the year 2011 I decided to associate with VF Brands India Pvt Ltd by starting exclusive brand outlets of LEE and Wrangler at Kochi Nucleus Mall. Initially, I managed this along with my job.
After two years, around the year 2013, VF Brands approached me to take over the entire North Kerala distribution for the business.
Since the business had grown to the desired stature and found traction and since it required more attention, I decided to quit my job in 2013.
This marked the incorporation of VCORP TRADERS PVT LTD and the commencement of a voyage of a lifetime.
