Principle Global, the global brand and implementation consultancy, has announced the appointment of entrepreneur Sukhpal Singh Ahluwalia as Non-Executive Chairman of its Indian business.
Sukhpal Singh Ahluwalia founded UK-based Euro Car Parts in 1978, growing it from a single store to a distributor of light vehicle parts in Europe. Following the company’s acquisition in 2011, Ahluwalia went on to found Dominvs Group, the real estate investment group and developer, which now manages £1 billion of residential, hospitality, and commercial real estate assets across the UK.
Ahluwalia brings more than 30 years’ experience working in the automotive and hospitality sectors, as well as decades of working in the Indian market. Ahluwalia is set to return to India in the coming years.
Richard Butterfield, Group Chairman of Principle Global, said, “I’m delighted to welcome Sukhpal as Non-Executive Chairman of our Indian business. This is a flagship appointment for the business. Sukhpal is hugely respected in India, where he is recognised amongst the major Indian and international business communities as one of the country’s leading global entrepreneurs.”
Sukhpal Singh Ahluwalia, Non-Executive Chairman of Principle India, added, “I’m delighted to be joining the Board of Principle India. I have always admired Richard and Principle Global. Corporates are desperately struggling with the difficult challenge of how to implement their brands across their stores, headquarters, and other real estate assets. Principle Global’s expertise is required more than ever before. I look forward to spending more time on the ground with the team, and I’m equally looking forward to becoming even more active in Indian businesses over the coming years.”
