Employee Speak

Apcotex congratulates RAVINDRA GADRE, our Chief Procurement Officer & Head of SCM, on being honoured as Chief Procurement Officer of the Year at the recently held 6th Nxtgen ProcureConnect Confex & Awards 2025. This recognition goes beyond an individual accolade. It reflects our organisation’s shared commitment to sustainable, efficient, and forward-looking procurement practices. As a keynote speaker, Mr. Gadre presented a powerful roadmap on “Procurement’s Role in Advancing ESG – From Planning to Implementation.” He shared actionable strategies on how procurement can lead the charge - from cutting emissions in transportation, adopting cleaner energy alternatives, to embedding EPR compliance into supplier systems and driving in-plant sustainability measures. His message was clear: procurement isn’t just about cost and continuity - it’s about leading responsibly, aligning ESG intent with everyday execution. Apcotex is honored to have his vision so widely recognized. Congratulations, Mr. Gadre!
