Co-Founder - Sustainable Sourcing & ESG at Nomadory
Vrnda Dalal is the Co-founder of Nomadory, a B2B company that brings transparency and traceability to the forefront of product sourcing. Nomadory specializes in lowering the barrier that smaller designers, architecture and design companies face when discovering and expanding their product lines from small scale artisanal suppliers from India. Prior to Nomadory, Vrnda successfully ran her independent consulting firm, Edifi, where she created sourcing strategies for mission driven home & fashion brands. During her time at Restoration Hardware she led key responsible sourcing (ESG), social compliance & product safety initiatives. Early on in her career, Vrnda made a life changing career decision and moved from Los Angeles to Bangalore, India where she combined her skills in international trade and supply chain to bring products made by women artisans to the international market. She forged retail partnerships with such brands as IKEA & Homegoods/ TJ Maxx increasing exports from 0 to 35% of the total annual revenue. She came to understand that building a resilient supply chain didn't have to come at the expense of negatively impacting people and the environment.
Strategist at The SGStore
For over two decades, I built brands for Fortune 500 companies, governments, and NGOs. But I wanted to create something of my own that was cleaner, safer, and future-friendly. That’s how Natural Care and EIGHT.OLD were born — two brands with one mission: to make everyday living sustainable, without compromise on quality or results. Natural Care offers a full lineup of eco-friendly cleaning essentials and non-toxic home care solutions — trusted by families, businesses, and even commercial kitchens. From stain removers and degreasers to daily cleaners and disinfectants, every product is planet-safe, high-performing, and designed for modern living. With EIGHT.OLD, we extended this vision into beauty and personal care — crafting clean, sustainable alternatives for skin and hair. Each product blends time-tested wisdom with modern science, ensuring results that are gentle, effective, and safe for people and the planet. I’m passionate about helping people transition to greener, conscious lifestyles, whether that’s through home care or self-care. If you’re looking for insights on eco-innovation, sustainable beauty, or conscious consumer trends, I’d be glad to contribute.
