Sunny Nandwani
There is no doubt that the supply chain industry, and everything related to fulfillment, logistics, has gotten exponentially more complicated since the recent global pandemic. Timelines became extended, connecting links disappeared, and customer’s needs and demands took on a new form of life.
Of course, this is a shift that has affected nearly all industries and businesses across the globe. Those that were able to adapt the necessary agile support and solutions to pivot and get themselves back on track are now likely to succeed into the future with more strength and prowess than ever before, and those that didn’t have likely crumbled already. For many, Sunny Nandwani and his company, Acuver, were the key piece of the puzzle to staying afloat and moving forward to thrive.
Meet Sunny
Sunny Nandwani was always drawn to the world of technology. He first graduated from Bharati Vidyapeeth, in India, with a Bachelor of Technology degree in electronics and communication. Then post gaining valuable tech experience for years in corporate profile, he went on with his executive management education at the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore, in hopes of leading others within the rapidly-advancing technology sector. His very first position was with Infosys, an Indian company known as a global leader in next-generation digital services and consulting. He worked as a technical specialist for over four years, and gained a wealth of knowledge with the multinational information company.
Over the next 13 years, Sunny was associated with some of the world’s foremost IT companies. He worked with a wide variety of clients, including some Fortune companies, to help solve their complex problems with innovative solutions. By combining technology with business and functional know-how on projects across different domains, including distributed order management, multi-channel fulfillment, and warehouse and logistics management, he was able to achieve impressive success. The most critical roles that he held during that time were as Senior Manager at Excipients Inc, an omnichannel commerce-focused software and services firm, and as an Associate Manager at Accenture, a Fortune Global 500 company that specializes in professional IT services.
Meet Acuver
In 2013, alongside his co-founding team of like-minded entrepreneurs, Sunny launched Acuver Consulting Private Limited. By leveraging their expertise, he was able to develop a customer-oriented consulting and IT service company that delivers innovative products within the supply chain execution and analytics field.
Sunny holds the title of Managing Director at Acuver Consulting, and has spearheaded global operations in India, Singapore, the UK, and Australia. The company is headquartered in Bangalore, with a current count of over 150+ employees across their various international locations.

They are also a Gold service partner of IBM’s ecosystem, where they utilize IBM’s hybrid cloud, AI technologies and platforms to help clients manage and modernize their workloads.
Supply Chain Innovation
The consulting firm takes a strategic approach, with holistic services and state-of-the-art technology, to help their clients enhance their business models, gain deeper customer insights and to maintain a bird’s eye view of their inventory at all times. Sunny explains, “In principle, our journey starts with knowing the customer, knowing the product and then handling end-to-end discovery, delivery, and maintenance. We focus on product engineering, digital strategy and transformation consultation, with innovation as our mantra.”
With decades of industry experience, the team behind Acuver has introduced ingenious products like MPI+ and Autofluence, which have delivered success to their clients and also earned the company several prestigious awards. 2021 was a particularly acclaimed year, as the company was awarded the Certificate of Excellence by CEO Magazine, the Enterprise Integration Technology Leadership Award from the MSC Summit, and the Marketplace Solution of the Year Technology Award from Inflection Awards (MSME). In 2022, they had continued recognition, as they earned the Great Places to Work Certification, and Sunny was personally presented with an Exemplary Leadership Award for Excellence in Logistics & Supply Chain by ET Ascent.
According to Sunny, “For years since its inception, Acuver Consulting has gone from being just another tech start-up, to revolutionizing the challenge of providing hustle-free and seamless supply chain optimization in India and abroad. Our efforts have been central to thrusting clients’ business continuity and helping them overcome supply chain challenges, while maintaining an agile and collaborative approach to create customized solutions in the digital value chain.”
A Bright Future for Many
Acuver has served over 100M+ global consumers across diverse sectors, like single and multi-brand retail, manufacturing, logistics, chemicals, and more. Nowadays, some of their key clients include Infinity, Marks & Spencer, India, and Godrej Interio and other Tier 1 leading retail brands. Looking to their next goals, they are acutely aware of the incredible demand in the logistics and supply chain landscape of the US. For that reason, they are working to expand Acuver’s product and service offerings to the American market. They are uniquely positioned to handle the massive task, as they help businesses optimize their supply chain processes, as well as their technology solutions to achieve enhanced efficiency and profitability. There is no doubt that the US will be lucky to have them.
In 2021, Acuver also initiated a social venture – the Acuver Foundation – which has a primary focus on education and health in India. Launched during the pandemic, they have already raised funds to build habitat centers for the homeless, to provide healthcare for the poor, and to develop and renovate schools. They plan to continue working to give back to those in need, with a particular focus on women and children.
