I founded Rus Organic with a bold vision—to create India’s first organic cold-pressed juice company, rooted in sustainability, quality, and ethical sourcing. From the start-up phase, I worked closely with local organic farmers and cooperatives, ensuring fair wages and empowering small-scale agriculture while delivering the highest quality produce. What began as a passion-driven venture has evolved into a market leader in the organic juice industry, pioneering white-label production for some of India’s largest corporations, including Tata and Reliance. Today, Rus stands as a household name, supplying premium cold-pressed juices to top-tier brands such as Starbucks, Pret A Manger, and Pluckk, as well as collaborating with esteemed hospitality giants like the Marriott Group. Beyond the Indian market, I spearheaded expansion into the Middle East, successfully exporting my own brand of cold-pressed juices to multiple countries. At its core, Rus Organic is more than just a business—it’s a movement, championing sustainability, inclusion, and innovation while reshaping the way people experience fresh, organic beverages.

Over the years, I have created a diverse range of marketing tools, initiatives, and branding strategies that have helped businesses carve their niche in competitive markets. From full-fledged branding exercises to innovative packaging design solutions and unconventional guerrilla marketing campaigns, my work has consistently driven brand awareness, engagement, and recall. Whether it’s crafting a striking visual identity, designing packaging that stands out on supermarket shelves, or developing strategic brand placements that leave a lasting impression, my designs have found their way into hotels, hospitals, supermarkets, online platforms, and beyond. Though this isn’t my full-time profession, it is a deeply fulfilling part-time endeavor that holds a full-time place in my heart.

I founded Juicin’ It, Qatar’s first organic cold-pressed juice company, turning a homegrown passion project into a thriving business. From ideation to execution, I built the brand from the ground up—developing unique product recipes, designing the branding, creating marketing strategies, and setting up operations, packaging, and labeling entirely on my own. What started as a small venture at farmers' markets quickly expanded into kiosks in major malls, gaining widespread recognition. However, due to regional embargoes and shifting market conditions, I pivoted the business model to focus on importing high-quality organic produce, successfully securing distribution deals with major supermarket chains across Qatar. My efforts led to strategic partnerships across the Gulf, solidifying my personal brand as a key player in the organic food space.
