The turn over during January 11 to March 11 has been quite high compared to year average and hence the turn over for the year 2011-12 will see an increase by a minimum of 15 to 20%.

 

The export turn over of the Company has improved during the year 2010-11 and they have added few customers from Ghana and Sri Lanka which gives as hope to improve the export turn over further during the year 2011-12. The Company has participated in one of the international exhibitions DRUPA during May 2008 and another exhibition Gulf Print at Dubai by which they are expecting orders from overseas for the year 2011-12. This is bound to help them in improving there turn over manifold in the years to come.

 

The company has successfully upgraded from ISO 9001: 2001 to ISO 9001:2008 during the year.

 

The Company has commenced building construction and applied for Term Loan with PIPDIC to complete the construction which will enable them to increase there sale manifold.
