Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], October 27 (ANI/Hunk Golden and Media): Customer Shastra, a startup founded by former WPP Customer Engagement head Anand Shiva, has won the mandate to manage ORM and customer experience endeavours for ITC Foods. The duties outlined focus around ITC Foods' corporate philosophy of being customer-centric thereby listening to customers and enhancing the understanding of customers.

It's inspiring to work with a company that puts customers first, and is obsessive about addressing their needs, and that's what we will deliver."

Siva further added that "The Indian customer has never been so spoilt for choice as today - opening up a plethora of choices in every category. And to stay on their shopping list, it is important to have an ear to the ground, get customer feedback and make it work across the enterprise - and that's what makes ITC Foods a delightful partnership. Their willingness to experiment, innovate and customer first philosophy makes all the difference." Anand comes with a rich background in customer engagement processes. As business head of business at Hansa Cequity, he had set up the Mahindra Relationship Centre for Mahindra Auto that went on to become a game changer for Cequity.
