Growth Story
The journey of MG Electrica started in 2008. The only idea when Mukesh Gupta started this venture was that he wanted to create a brand which is known all over the world in its field. The company started this journey with a small setup of 300 square feet rented place with a single set of machine and few team members.
It was a difficult job to sell a consumable product in an overcrowded industry. As a policy the company decided that it will not compromise on quality and will give the best service. “We went to all major cities and tried to meet all dealers and major customers with consistent follow-up. We could get few non-standard customized inquiries where we gave solutions to them and today we are a default supplier to many major multinational customers all over the country”, says the MD.
Future Endeavours
MG Electrica is planning to manufacture allied components like cable glands, earthing accessories and panel accessories which are required by the same set of customers. So if it also introduces this product in the next one year the company will automatically grow two times in the next two years.When it comes to the domestic industry, the company wants to widen its dealer network and make a solid network of over 200 dealers all across the country in the coming three years. “The future plan is to cover to the global market. We are already strong in Middle East market and are making inroads to the European market. To make this task easier and grow faster, we are looking for a joint venture with a global company who could be a partner to our growth in global perspective and we will push them in the Indian market”, concludes the MD.
