Gunjan Jain is the undeniable growth engine of VKC Nuts Pvt. Ltd. He fearlessly took control of his family's struggling company as a teenager, pursuing the traditional business instead of an individual career. While he relentlessly pursued his ambition with commensurate tilling, risk-taking, experimentation, and a continual out-of-the-box approach, his efforts led to transforming the company from a "Bottom End" player to a "Front Runner" in today's Nuts and Dried Fruits Trade. In the past, when the Indian market was hesitant to go beyond cashews, almonds, pistachios, raisins, and walnuts, he sensed and recognized an opportunity to go beyond them; the pursuit of his passion led to the introduction of exotic nuts and dried fruits sourced from various origins, pushing the trade frontiers and causing a paradigm shift in the market.
