Global Impact Awards have Indian connections

The Global Impact Awards honor Metro Atlanta Chamber members for excellence and innovation in the area of international business.

 

Surya Carpets won the Economic Development Foreign Investment Award, over two Chinese companies. Surya M. Tiwari, from the northeastern village of Ugapur, India, went to Bombay, found an opportunity, and in one week made it a business. He then began operating in the U.S. in order to make the business more responsive to clients, and is now the only rug manufacturer to offer accessories as well as rugs. Surya’s son Satya Tiwari, U.S. Division President of Surya, Inc. in Calhoun, Georgia, has expanded the company dramatically and achieved several industry awards.
