About Kesha Vankar

I’m a growth-focused Key Account Manager with over a decade of experience in the food, dairy, ingredients, and packaging sectors—spanning India, the GCC, and Europe.With a unique foundation in dairy engineering (M.Tech) and a strategic lens from IIM Ahmedabad, I’ve led multimillion-dollar B2B initiatives across the value chain—spanning New Product Development, Route-to-Market strategies, cross-functional team leadership, and P&L ownership. I’ve consistently delivered double-digit growth by blending commercial acumen with deep technical insight.My journey includes working with some of the most respected global players—Tetra Pak, SIG, Kerry, and IFF—where I’ve driven innovations in flexible packaging, functional ingredients, and value-added dairy formats. I’ve led high-impact partnerships with brands like Amul, Nestle, Schreiber, Mother Dairy, Havmor, and other national brands.I thrive in roles that demand vision, cross-border collaboration, and end-to-end business leadership—and I’m now preparing for executive leadership roles that shape strategy, drive category, market, and business expansion at scale.
