Meet The Elmbridge Team

Pradeep Shetty

Managing Director

After having a career in the hospitality sector, Pradeep’s passion for business and working for himself drove him towards this new venture. Pradeep has some close friends who are part of the Caremark franchise network and after seeing how much of a difference they were bringing to peoples lives and also giving back to the community he wanted to be a part of it too. Also, from a personal experience he witnessed his grandfather being bedridden for years after a bad stroke while his mother and her sisters would take it in turns to look after him. Pradeep recognised that they were fortunate enough as a family to be able to do that but not everybody is in that position and he likes to think Caremark can help families who need it. These are some of the reasons why he chose Caremark, so he can make a difference in someone’s life while they are staying at their home and give them their independence.

Prajakta Karmarkar

Managing Director

After completing a Post Graduate Diploma in Hotel and Catering Management and a successful career in the Hotel Industry, Prajakta changed her career path to Retail Management to suit her motherhood role. From the flourishing Travel Retail to E-commerce, opportunity has knocked again to take up a new role in the care sector which she always yearned for.

At Caremark Elmbridge Prajakta wants to make footprints to follow and would like to say: “If we could look into each others hearts and see the challenges each of us face, I think we would treat each other with more love, kindness, compassion and patience”.
