Sreenidhi Raja Packing Solutions Pvt Ltd, operating production plants in Gajulamandyam and Sri Kalahasti, caters to the electronics, automobile, and other sectors. Being an ISO 9001-2015 registered company, their participation in Quality Circle meetings and successive achievement awards have significantly bolstered their market reputation.
Strategic Initiatives
Sreenidhi Raja Packing Solutions addresses customer demands for cost-effective and optimized packaging by focusing on internal efficiency, resource optimization, and exploring alternative solutions. However, they face challenges like manpower shortages and power interruptions. "Our journey began in 2006 with manual processes. We transitioned to semi-automatic equipment in 2012 and achieved 70-80 percent automation by 2016-2017. This financial year, we plan to invest 20 crores to upgrade equipment and adopt new technologies, aiming for 90-100 percent automation. These advancements will ensure we meet the evolving needs of our customers", speaks Saritha Sekhar Galla, Managing Director.
Sreenidhi Raja Packing Solutions, which started with a small team of six to seven members, has grown to a workforce of over 300-400 employees. Their focus extends beyond Andhra Pradesh, particularly the Tirupati district, reaching Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Telangana. They serve clients like Amara Raja Energy & Mobility, Dixon, Galla Foods, Aurobindo Pharma, Adani Wilmar, and Emami Agrotech. Their reach has expanded to African countries and a US-based company, with plans for US exports soon.
"Our success is largely attributed to the invaluable mentorship and support provided by Ramachandra Naidu Galla, Founder of the Amara Raja Group, Co-Founder and Present Chairman, Jaydev Galla. We aim to achieve a turnover of Rs.100 crores by 2024, driven by our experienced team and sustainable practices, including rooftop solar panels that supply 80 percent of our power needs”, shares Saritha Sekhar Galla, MD, and Raja Sekhar Naidu Galla, Chairman.
The company's dedicated team adheres to rigorous quality processes from the start. All raw materials, including kraft paper, gum, and other components, undergo thorough laboratory testing. Production only commences when these materials meet strict specifications. If materials fail to meet standards, the firm demands replacements from suppliers and waits for the correct products before starting production. "Quality checks continue until dispatch, with comprehensive inspections ensuring we deliver top-notch products. Despite supply chain challenges in the packaging industry, particularly space requirements during delivery, we manage efficiently by selecting customers within a 200–300-kilometer radius and utilizing our own environmentally controlled logistics fleet. Our supply chain team ensures timely procurement of raw materials, maintaining a seamless production process”, says Raja Sekhar Naidu Galla, Chairman.

Sreenidhi Raja Packing Solutions is charting an ambitious course for the future with diverse packaging products, including corrugated sheets, boxes, and flexo printing for label printing. They specialize in self-adhesive and brand image labels, catering to various customer needs. Confident in meeting quality systems and requirements, Sreenidhi Raja Packing Solutions is now working with US customers and extending support to the pharmaceutical industry with advanced printing technology that ensures 100 percent compliance with pharma standards. Additionally, they plan to enter the aerosol can market within two years, further expanding their capabilities and market reach.
