Co-President: Poorvi Shah Patel
As the Co-President of the Consumer Product and Retail Business Club, I bring a deep passion for this dynamic and fast-growing industry. My entrepreneurial journey in founding and managing my own D2C brand offering premium dry fruits has given me hands-on experience and insight into the opportunities and challenges in this sector. I also have experience in understanding consumer behavior and designing products that align with their preferences, which has been instrumental in driving the success of my brand. During my MBA, I am further building my expertise by studying subjects such as market research and operations and supply chain management, which I believe are fundamental for a successful career in this field. My goal as a club president is to inspire and equip my peers with the knowledge, resources, and connections needed to explore and thrive in this exciting industry. Through informative sessions, networking opportunities, and curated job postings, I aim to create a vibrant platform for learning and professional growth.
