Cogent Limiteds Managing Directors Background.
Mr. Ushir Chandaria Managing Director of Cogent Limited is a prominent entrepreneur of the country.
Mr.Chandarias business career began in 1990 where he was employed in a retail garment shop. It was here that Mr.Chandarias business abilities began to flourish. He rapidly gained a reputation as a one man business powerhouse and accelerated the expansion of the shop by popularizing it. At that time, there were very limited avenues to advertise and it was through his single handed effort and ability to recognize threats and opportunities that the retail shop reached its peak.
He then moved to Kenpoly Manufacturers in the year 1993, he began his career here in the sales and operations department. While in the department Mr.Chandaria introduced Information Technology into the company. Through this their transaction and order system was drastically changed to be more effective and efficient. Before its inception, the company was running manual systems which were time consuming and limiting. Mr.Chandaria then focused his efforts to the Public relation angle of the company and improved the supplier and customer relations by maintaining direct contact with them and as a result increasing their confidence in him and the company.
The management of Kenpoly then noticed the innovative nature of Mr.Chandaria and promoted him to Director of the company. As director, Mr.Chandaria contributed in the expansion of the products that
the company manufactured and also its client base, giving the company a more innovative target for the future.
In 2008, after 15 years at Kenpoly, Mr.Chandaria fulfilled a personal ambition of his to begin his own entity, he and a partner then began Cogent limited a trading company. Considering that his main expertise is in expansion of small to medium sized enterprises, he felt that this was the way for his career to go.
He has now created and is running his own trading company which if dictated by his past performance, will become a force to reckon with in the business world in the near future.
