🏗️ 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗳𝘁 𝗮𝘁 𝗣𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗗𝗼𝘁 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗟𝘁𝗱 A name behind some of Nairobi's more recognisable developments has changed at the top. Pravin Pindoriya, who founded Purple Dot International Ltd in 2017, has stepped down as Chairman, handing the reins to Kurji Kerai,previously the company's Vice Chairman. 🧱 A Founder's Exit, On His Own Terms Announcing the transition, Pindoriya struck a tone rarely seen in leadership changes across the region's built environment sector: direct, personal and free of the vague corporate language that usually accompanies these moves. He described the decision as being made "with immense gratitude and pride," crediting the company's growth from a founding vision into a firm with a tangible footprint on the city's skyline, including the Purple Tower development alongside industrial parks and residential projects. 🏙️ A Family Footprint Across Two Firms The new Chairman's ties to the industry run through more than one company. Kurji Kerai serves as Executive Director at Ark Construction Ltd and his son, Bharat Kerai , was named CEO of Purple Dot International earlier in the year while continuing as a Director at Ark Construction — placing father and son across leadership roles at both firms. 🔑 Continuity Over Disruption Pindoriya was clear that his departure from the Chairman role does not mean a full exit from the business. He said he remains committed to the "Purple Dot family" and intends to continue supporting the company's growth as leadership shifts to Kurji Kerai as Chairman and Bharat Kerai as CEO. For Construction Today, this kind of transition is worth watching closely — both for what it means for Purple Dot's direction, and for the cross-company ties between two firms now linked through the same family's leadership.
