Bhuvaneswari, who joined the company in 1994, anchors the firm’s ground reality through a distinct, field-driven management style. She spends approximately half of her time away from the corporate office, instead visiting the company’s 18 plants and thousands of milk collection centres to engage directly with farmers and consumers. This direct engagement has driven significant policy changes to ensure supply chain integrity and farmer support, including the implementation of transparent procurement with milk analysers, prompt digital payments every 10 days, and the launch of the Vet+ app for assistance. Her commitment was recently recognized with the Golden Peacock Award for Corporate Governance.

Complementing this mission-focused approach is the strategic vision driven by Nara Brahmani, an alumna of Stanford Graduate School of Business with international experience at Danone. Brahmani’s focus is on securing the company’s future by leading R&D, strategic resource allocation, and digital transformation. She has established the highly ambitious corporate vision for Heritage Foods to become the “most admired dairy nutrition company in India by 2030,” setting a strong, technologically focused precedent for the sector.

To materialize this aggressive vision, Brahmani has established clear, quantitative expansion targets. The company is committed to significantly scaling its raw material supply by doubling its milk procurement capacity from the current volume of 20 lakh litres per day to 40 lakh litres within the next five years. This objective underscores a strategic commitment to strengthening market share, securing high-quality milk volume, and funding the expansion of its value-added product range across its multi-state operations.
