"Treebo has a unique business model, which consistently delivers customer delight, impeccable quality and value to its customers. In a short span of two years, the company has become the third largest hotel chain in the country. What's even more exciting to me as a finance professional is the fact that Treebo is being built on solid fundamentals and the team is committed to sustainable economics. I'm excited about this opportunity, as we embark on a journey to become the country's largest and most profitable hotel chain over the next few years," said Pradeep Sriram.
