Background

About Amritha Devnani

Specialising in Food Science and Nutrition, I’ve amassed 10 years of experience as a Nutrition & Health professional in the Food Industry. I’m passionate about applying my Nutrition knowledge in a business context and helping brands define impactful strategies. I currently work at India’s largest FMCG company Hindustan Unilever Limited, where I am responsible for the nutrition agenda of the Foods business. I’ve been consistently recognised for my business & technical partnership skills which is underpinned by deep domain expertise in areas of nutrition science, consumer behaviour, health trends and the ability to articulate scientific literature into winning claims, communication and activation. I’m also known for my collaborative nature, presentation/storytelling skills, creative approach to problem-solving, sharp external orientation skills (always keeping track of competition), and the ability to understand the big picture (business strategy) yet keep a hawk-eye for detail. I’ve inculcated the habit of being immaculately organised which helps me stay on top of my to-do list no matter the circumstance. Being a vegetarian by choice, I am a strong advocate of the ‘Plant forward’ movement. My ambition is to empower people to make healthy, sustainable food and beverage choices while impactfully addressing the big environmental and health demands.
