Technology division is spearheaded by Giridhar Yasa, who worked earlier with Lendingkart and Flipkart, while supply chain operations are led by Anand Raj, who had experience working with Flipkart and Swiggy. Puneet Khanna and Rahul Gupta will lead fashion, lifestyle, home, and kitchenware business growth under Exporio and Terraspan brands.
Asia, which contributes 70% of world consumer growth, is Opptra's first target, with markets in India, Southeast Asia, and the GCC region. Opptra also aims to diversify into segments such as electronics, sports, baby care, and general merchandise.
With Bansal's track record of scaling e-commerce companies and Opptra's technology-enabled, franchise-based model, the company wants to be a global player, enabling brands to succeed in multiple markets across the world.
