About Ashish Yadav
I am an automotive business leader with 25+ years of experience across India and Africa, specializing in scaling markets, driving P&L profitability, and building distribution ecosystems that create lasting competitive advantage. My journey spans OEM leadership, dealership entrepreneurship, and country-level operational command — giving me a 360° understanding of the automotive value chain from manufacturing to retail to after-sales.In Nigeria, I led domination of the Bajaj 2W/3W category across FCT and Central States, strengthened multi-region dealer networks, expanded spare-part availability, and delivered institutional sales to state governments. Previously, as Regional Business Head (Simba Group) and Founder of a Honda Exclusive Dealership, I built high-performing sales engines, modernized customer experience, and established scalable retail + rural market penetration models. My early foundation at Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India gave me exposure to nationwide marketing, OEM pricing strategies, exports, and global brand representation at Auto Expo 2008 & 2010.I operate with a growth-first mindset — blending strategic planning with on-ground execution, digital adoption, and team capability building. I thrive in markets that demand transformation, speed, and decisive leadership.What I Bring P&L Ownership | Revenue Acceleration Cross-Country Experience | Nigeria & India Dealer Network Expansion | Rural + Urban Penetration After-Sales & Spares Distribution Architecture🤝 OEM, Government & Fleet Stakeholder Management🧠 Critical Thinker | Team Builder | Change DriverCareer Highlights #1 region for Bajaj CNG 3W (Nigeria, 2024–25) Delivered TVS 3W (Gombe) & 625 TVS 3W (Borno Govt) Built & led Honda-exclusive dealership from concept to profitability Led Auto Expo Programs for HMSI (2008 & 2010) Scaled service & spares accessibility across NigeriaI am now positioned for Country Head / National Business Director / Africa Operations Leadership roles where the mandate is rapid expansion, profitability, and industry dominance.If you are building the future of automotive mobility — let’s connect.
