In 2017, Flipkart launched Project Vividtha to enable the active participation of women in its supply chain. Today, women are employed in a host of roles — from sorting, to delivery, shipment checks, security and more — creating an inclusive and empowering workplace. While Flipkart fuels their career aspirations, these trailblazing women bring ambition, passion, energy and purpose to their jobs.
Many of these women are the first in their families to work in such roles, creating supply chain history in India.Â
Theirs is a story of inclusion, equal opportunity, dreams and success.Â
