BlueStone elevates Sudeep Nagar to co-founder
Nagar joined BlueStone as an AVP and marked 10 years with the venture earlier this week.
Mumbai: Fine jewellery brand BlueStone announced the elevation of its chief operating officer, Sudeep Nagar. Nagar has joined the company’s CEO, Gaurav Singh Kushwaha, as the second co-founder of the Bangalore-based retail venture.
Announcing the change to the leadership structure, Singh said, "It's no coincidence that Nagar's elevation to co-founder comes just as he marks a decade of building BlueStone. In these ten years, his initiatives have impacted all possible functions like marketing, retail, sales, logistics, accounts, and more. I can't think of a better person to share the mantle of co-founder."
An alumnus of IIM Ahmedabad, Nagar joined BlueStone a decade ago, in December 2012, with extensive experience in software and luxury real estate. Since then, he has been instrumental in making BlueStone a vertically and digitally integrated organisation.
Initiatives under his leadership have strongly impacted the business, curtailing critical wastage, improving delivery speed, and maintaining lean operations overall. With his elevation to co-founder, Sudeep will continue to leverage the fine jewellery retailer's proprietary technology ecosystem to ensure consumers have a seamless experience across the D2C website, app, and 140+ stores, from design to delivery.
