Today marks an important day as we took that step to launch the 1st retail store of SustainKart, post its online launch in January 2021. We have been able to multiply our customer reach in this little over 1.5 years and ensured that the bigger global impact is received through maximized sustainable practices”, added MsShilpa Reddy, Co-founder & CFO, SustainKart.
Chief guest, Sustainability Activist and Actress AmalaAkkineni, “SustainKart is a momentous, timely initiative, conceptualized and championed by Shilpa Reddy and KanthiDutt.

I am delighted to see the work SustainKart is doing and look forward to seeing it grow exponentially to a 100-store chain soon.”
