Ricardo is a versatile businessman with the vision of an intrepid explorer. He has curated Titos expansion since  he took over Titos at the age  15. From sitting under a coconut tree upon the death of his father and taking the bus with cloth bags every morning to the market as well as spending years in the kitchen cooking behind a hot stove, and even sleeping rough on the beach, and  having 45 rupees in the bank with no land holding to now running and owning a multi-million dollar Brand, he has truly created a niche for himself in the business world . Ricardos sense of design, combined with his eagerness to learn and experiment and doggedness to succeed has made him a very formidable businessman. He is always looking for new opportunities to expand the brand. Casino being the top of the list, then Fashion, Signature Villas/Apartments, Franchising, Creating SOPs for the brand, and developing new Infotech and marketing solutions with the potential to take on Swiggy, Oyo, and some of the established brands are now on his horizon. He is further scouting the taking over of hotels internationally under the Titos brand, adding more clubs, restaurants, and lounges to the Titos portfolio as well as expanding further into the Fashion industry which has shown great promise and brand acceptance amongst the youth. Ricardo has also travelled extensively across the world and brings a wealth of Global experience to Titos. Ricardo is also  a Nationalist who has refused to change his passport despite being eligible for British and Portuguese citizenship and has even sued the Queen of England in 2015 and asked for the return of the Kohinoor Diamond that was stolen from India. This resulted in Global interviews and recognition and also great publicity. Ricardo is a visionary who believes that India needs to regain its rightful place at the table of great Nations. Ricardo also truly believes in sharing the wealth and envisions a new world of business ownership democratization , wherein every person should have a share of big business houses through tokenisation or splitting of those business shares through crypto or NFTs which can be a great way of collectivizing ownership. Ricardo also does a lot of charity through Titos Foundation, as he truly believes we and all the inhabitants of this planet are all deserving of a good life.
