Satya Tiwari, president of rug and home accessory vendor Surya, has been named to the 2012 Atlanta Business Chronicles 40 Under 40 list.
The publications 40 Under 40 honors the accomplishments of Atlantas most successful young professionals. Honorees must demonstrate leadership, professional achievement and community service. This year more than 500 nominations were received for the award and winners were selected by a committee of former 40 Under 40 alumni.
Since joining his fathers company, Surya, in 2004, Tiwari has grown the business 24-fold and made the brand a recognized leader in the rug and home accessories industry.
The company has achieved double-digit growth in seven of the last eight years and works with more than 60 percent of the top 200 furniture retailers in the United States.
Surya is also deeply dedicated to community stewardship. Today the brand is partnering with nonprofits East Meets West and the Akshaya Patra Foundation, which provide food and other life-changing resources for impoverished youth at schools across Vietnam and India.
I am thrilled to be a recipient of this years 40 Under 40 awards--and finding myself in the company of so many other successful young professionals here in the Atlanta area, Tiwari said.
Satya has been instrumental in setting the vision for Suryas growth and I am proud to see his efforts being recognized, said Surya Tiwari, Satyas father and company founder.
Tiwari and other 40 Under 40 recipients were recognized at an awards dinner held Nov. 8 at the Atlanta History Center.
