Ernst & Young Honors Jaipur Founder

By Home Furnishings Business in Community/Charitable Support on February 24, 2011

Jaipur Rugs Founder N.K. Chaudhary has received a 2010 Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year award.

Chaudhary received the honor in New Delhi for excellence in the "Star-Up" category.

The criteria for the award go beyond running a successful business. Winners also must demonstrate innovation and exemplary levels of both professional and entrepreneurial leadership.

"Our entire team here is elated at this prestigious honor my father has received from such a highly respected organization as Ernst & Young," said Asha Chaudhary, Chaudhary's daughter and president of Jaipur Rugs' U.S. operation. "On a personal level, it's incredibly rewarding for me to see all of his years of hard work, passionate commitment and singular vision recognized by the international  business community."
 
One of the Jaipur's main goals is to improve the standard of living, education and income for its 40,000 weavers and artisans throughout India. Chaudhary's ongoing work through the Jaipur Rugs Foundation has allowed him to grow a successful business but also the longer-reaching opportunity to nurture the spirit of entrepreneurship within the company's vast network of artisans and their families through grassroots programs focusing on education, healthcare, community stewardship and women€™s empowerment.
