Prakash has over 20 years of practice in the hospitality industry, helping clients optimize FF&E budgets through smart procurement while meeting design requirements. With a strong background in investment banking, he offers financing solutions tailored to their projects and brings a deep knowledge of deal structuring and debt financing. As founder of Vision Pacific Group, he delivers turnkey fit-out solutions for hospitality, commercial, and retail spaces, offering bespoke furniture, millwork/joinery, and lighting. His design and manufacturing reach includes Asia, Europe, Oceania, the US, and MENA. He employs a production team, a quality control team, and an international network of suppliers to meet procurement needs.

Background
- After graduating from the University of Pennsylvania, Prakash began his career as a strategic consultant with Penn and Schoen Associates, then worked in investment banking with Bankers Trust Company, specializing in high-yield bonds. He later moved to Hong Kong to run the family business, gaining expertise in manufacturing, sourcing, supply chain, and project management. Identifying a gap in the market, he founded Vision Pacific Group to offer full-service hospitality solutions combining design, procurement, and financing. His first project—a boutique hotel in the Pacific—set the tone for a career spent collaborating with architects, hoteliers, and investors worldwide. Notable executed projects include the Ritz Paris, Hotel de Crillon, and W Maldives. His financial expertise ensures clients receive quality fit-out results with financing options that reduce burden and improve returns.
Testimonial
-
From the start of my project, I knew that I didn’t want the motel to look like it was designed with stuff that was pulled off the shelf of a big box store. Having admired the look of boutique hotels & motels for a long time, I set out to find a way to get that custom look. After searching for a while, a friend of mine recommended Prakash at Vision Pacific. I was nervous to talk to him at first because my project was probably on the smaller side of what he usually deals with. The first conversation went really smoothly, and Prakash was friendly and knowledgeable. We moved things forward and, at every stage, Prakash and his team helped me through the design and production process. They even showed us many blind spots that we were not aware of. After months of working with the team, then getting the custom fixtures delivered straight to us and installed, I couldn’t be more happy with the final product.

Working with Prakash Khemlani of Vision Pacific Group / Vision United has been an exceptional experience. Prakash brings a rare blend of design sophistication, financial insight, and industry know-how to every project. On our recent collaboration, he challenged me to elevate the design vision while ensuring it remained achievable, and he tapped into his extensive network to source the right manufacturers who could deliver the required quality within both the budget and the schedule. His ability to balance creativity with pragmatism makes him an invaluable partner, and I truly consider him a trusted advisor.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Prakash on several hospitality projects over the past several years and I can confidently say he brings exceptional value to every engagement. His comprehensive understanding of both the financial and operational aspects of hospitality ventures sets him apart in the industry.
Prakash’s expertise in FF&E procurement and management is particularly impressive. He consistently sources high-quality products that balance aesthetic appeal with durability and budget considerations. His vendor relationships and knowledge of product lines have saved our projects both time and money while never compromising on quality.
What makes Prakash truly stand out is his ease of collaboration. He has a remarkable ability to translate complex financial concepts into actionable insights that all stakeholders can understand and appreciate. His attention to detail in budgeting and cost analysis, combined with his creative problem-solving approach, has helped us navigate challenging project requirements while maintaining profitability.
His range of knowledge extends beyond just products and finances – he understands the full lifecycle of hospitality operations, from concept development through implementation and ongoing management. This holistic perspective makes him an invaluable partner who can identify opportunities and potential issues before they become problems.
I would welcome the opportunity to work with Prakash again and highly recommend him to any organization seeking a knowledgeable, reliable, and results-oriented hospitality professional.

Over the past 18 years, I have collaborated with Prakash on several projects, most notably Spice Market Melbourne, where his expertise, professionalism, and responsiveness proved invaluable.
For Spice Market, Prakash supplied over USD $500,000 in custom furniture across 27 designs of chairs, couches, tables, and other pieces in relatively small quantities. Coordinating so many SKUs, managing cross-border manufacturing, and maintaining strict quality control was no small task, yet Prakash delivered seamlessly.
From initial planning and shop drawings through production, delivery, and installation, Prakash worked with transparency, fairness, and accountability. He combined manufacturing and sourcing expertise with flexibility at a time when Chinese production typically required bulk orders. Acting as both manufacturer and supplier, he ensured smooth logistics, excellent finishes, and furniture that met all design and functional requirements. Equally important, he was responsive and calm under pressure, solving challenges quickly and effectively. He adapted readily, offered practical recommendations, and always acted as a partner rather than just a vendor, helping us achieve the best possible outcome.
Based on my experience, I have no hesitation in recommending Prakash Khemlani for any leadership, procurement, or sourcing role in the furnishing or hospitality project supply sector. He brings domain expertise, integrity, and trusted relationships essential to success in global production.
