Parle’s pearly ‘pet’ girl!

Schauna CHAUHAN... launching Frooti in Pet bottles was her brainchild, and a blaring success

She created an impact at 30 – quite an early age! Schauna Chauhan Saluja was made Director on board of Parle Agro Pvt. Ltd., in February 1999 and her accomplishments ever since elevated her to post of Chief Executive Officer, Parle Agro in August last year. In charge of overall operations including finance, legal, manufacturing and exports, this international business management graduate from the Business School Lausanne had been groomed for the top post early in life. Her contributions have ranged from streamlining and strengthening human resources, implementing new manufacturing facilities, planning backward integration projects for the Group and also strengthening the existing brand portfolio –Frooti, Bailley, Appy and Appy Fizz.

“While most of us may never become recognised as ‘great’ leaders, we can always continuously develop to be ‘better’ leaders,” she avers modestly. Working in a male dominated world really doesn’t matter to her; for success, gender is not the important factor. She believes, progress depends on each one’s ability, potential and whether or not you can motivate people. As CEO of Parle Agro, Schauna Chauhan has been able to give products like Frooti, Appy and N-Joi a commendable international presence. And guess what is the life mantra for this swashbuckling, jetsetting tycoon: “Achievement means satisfaction. Perseverance and loyalty to one’s work always pay off.”
