Food delivery giant Swiggy elevates Phani Kishan as co-founder

Food delivery giant Swiggy has elevated Phani Kishan to the co-founder position. Kishan was vice president of strategy and investments.

“Phani (Kishan) joined us very early on in 2015, and has been my fixer and go-to guy for many important problems for as long as I can remember,” said Swiggy co-founder and CEO Sriharsha Majety in a blog post. “Over these 6 years, he’s probably had the record for setting up multiple high leverage functions from the ground up.”

Swiggy was co-founded by Majety, Rahul Jaimini and Nandan Reddy in 2014. Last year, Jaimini, who was CTO, moved away from his role
