    Mr. Marcelo Villagran is Chief Executive Officer, Managing Director, Executive Director of Bata India Limited. He has been working with the Bata Group for 37 years and before joining the Company in 2005 he was the CEO of Bata Chile. The restructuring and re-engineering of the Company was largely possible due to the continuous and sustained efforts put in by Mr. Villagran.
