Food Empire's CEO Sudeep Nair explains how each wave of challenges, from rising costs to forex volatility, has made the company stronger.

Getting to meet CEO Sudeep Nair of Food Empire Holdings (SGX:F03) in person is tough. There is a narrow window of time to catch him in Singapore before he’s off again, whether to Europe, Dubai, or wherever the business needs him.

Nair’s working life spans mainly three time zones. He spends about a month in Europe. Another month is spent in Asia, where Singapore, the company’s headquarters, becomes his base. Then there’s Dubai, which sits in between, both geographically and logistically.
