Minor Hotel Group has promoted Dillip Rajakarier from chief operating officer to chief executive officer.
In his new role, Rajakarier is tasked with growing the hotel group to 150 hotels within the next five years, and expanding the group’s home grown brands Anantara and Avani, in addition to making strategic acquisitions across Asia Pacific, the Middle East and the Indian Ocean. Rajakarier joined Minor Hotel Group as chief financial officer in March 2007. Since then, he has been instrumental in the expansion of the hotel portfolio, including the recent launch of the upscale Avani Hotels & Resorts brand.
