Vivek Sunder, Swiggy’s COO to step down from role, after working in this role for three years, with founder Sriharsha Majety taking over his responsibilities. Sriharsha said in an e-mail to Swiggy employees, regarding the matter, “I am writing to let you know that Vivek Sunder, our COO, has decided to pursue interests outside of Swiggy and will transition out of the organisation by October. I will be directly overseeing the marketplace business with immediate effect. We have been discussing this for a while now, and over the course of the past few weeks, have been planning the way forward as well.” He further said, “He played a pivotal role in expanding the geographical footprint of the marketplace business, taking Swiggy beyond 500+ cities and later rallied the organisation to drive a step change in the unit economics of the marketplace business. He also played a key role in holding the fort in our on-ground operations during the COVID lockdown phases.”
Vivek had been the public face of Swiggy, communicating the vision of the organisation. As mentioned in e-mail he had contributed to the company in terms of infusing large organisation thinking with a constant focus on scalability.
