HISTORY
This is a proprietorship firm that is engaged in the export of Mangoes
and the import of Apples and Pears. Now Mr. M A Rahim the owner hails from a family
that has been engaged the fruits, vegetable and processed food business for
over 3 decades. The family first started the Royal group (Export and Importer)
in Chennai for the import of fruits and export of Mangoes. Slowly they
progressed in to processed food.
Subject is situated in the Anna Fruit Market at Koyambedu. Now, the
Government of Tamilnadu has constructed a vegetable and fruit market in
Koyambedu. This is the largest vegetable/ fruit markets in entire Asia. The
government provided infrastructure is excellent with cold storage,
transportation facilities and is situated next to the largest Bus Depot in
Tamilnadu the central Mufossil Bus Terminus. The entire Tamilnadu gets is
vegetable and fruit supply from this market and also suppliers pour into this
market from all over the country and abroad.
Subject is one of the bigger vendors in the market and their products
are sold all over the country. The mere presence of this firm in this in this
large market speaks good about their business. They cannot hope to be any
better place than this and strategy is very useful for their sales. They sell
their products to smaller and medium sized vendors in the same market who in
turn send them to other places in Tamilnadu.
The group is very well known for the import and export activities.
However it is difficult to asses the financial strength of this firm. No direct
financial dealings recommended. No direct supplier recommended. Supplies
against LCs documents thru bank recommended.
