About Devesh Joshi
I’m a Finance & Strategy leader with 15+ years across e-commerce and supply chain - 8.5 of those at Amazon India. I’ve owned P&L finance for Fashion & Personal Care (7 categories), led finance for an acquired reseller platform, driven controllership across 7 India entities, and built teams while scaling last-mile logistics and automation programs.Now I’m building The Honest Roots; a consumer wellness brand focused on lifestyle issues of working professionals. Our approach is simple: science-backed wellness, clean and standardized ingredients, and outcome-driven routines that fit high-pressure lives. We focus on the big three at work: stress down, sleep up, focus sharp.DM for early access, creator collabs, or networking.
