Movers And Shakers Of The Week [27 March – 1 April]

Zivame CEO Steps Down

Bengaluru-based online lingerie retailer Zivame’s CEO Richa Kar has stepped down from her position as CEO of the company. The company has not announced her replacement yet.

Earlier in January 2017, she was forced to step away from the daily business operations of the portal. Shaleen Sinha, who was hired as the Chief Operating Officer (COO) in November 2015 had taken over, as a result of what is being called an investor-led rejig.

Richa founded Zivame in 2011 as an aggregator of lingerie brands and later pivoted it to a private label business. Her early career stints include association with brands such as Intergraph, i-flex Solutions, Spencers and SAP.

She is an alumnus of SVKM’s Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies (NMIMS) and BITS Pilani.
