Maria Gandhi - Co-Founder

Maria Gandhi

Co-Founder

With over seven years of experience in the power tools and spare parts industry, I bring a deep understanding of customer needs and industry challenges. I began my career working with leading brands such as Bosch, Stanley, Black & Decker, and Hikoki, while simultaneously managing accounts and legal compliance for Unique Engineers. This dual exposure gave me insight into both the consumer market and large-scale industrial operations.

In 2018, I co-founded an e-commerce platform focused on providing spare parts directly to customers, addressing a critical gap in the industry. The business experienced significant growth during the COVID-19 pandemic, fulfilling urgent customer needs and reinforcing the importance of timely, reliable service.

As Director of Ultimamac, my focus is on delivering a seamless buying experience for customers, with a commitment to safety, convenience, and affordability. Ultimamac offers a comprehensive range of power tools, spare parts, and accessories, catering to both individual consumers and large enterprises.

What stands out most is the celebration of knowledge, professional growth, and entrepreneurship - it’s one of the best for the Indian ecosystem. Along the way, I’ve also been fortunate to make some great friendships and connections too."

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."
