This industry is further expected to rise at an unprecedented level in order to meet the requirement of the large population of South Asia.

The location of Vijayalakshmi Health & Surgicals (VLHS) also plays a critical role to meet consumer demands since it is in Andhra Pradesh which provides easy access to raw materials while synergizing with the swift delivery of the finished product across PAN India and export markets.

Srinivas states, “The domestic market which is primarily the hospital and pharmaceutical sector who consume directly have a very stringent need for the quality of the gloves. The acceptance levels of the practitioners regarding the quality of gloves are high in hospitals. However, in case of B2B operations, there is a wide variety of resellers in the market who are less interested in the quality of the glove while being more cost conscious as they have to transfer the cost to subsequent parties. Company is in the process of establishing designated exclusive distributors who could take our brand DR.GLOVE to the end customers.
