Finding a place in heart, that started a thriving industry
If you've spent time with the local people within the Hindi speaking regions of India, it's quite unlikely that you've not heard the phrasal line: "Dil mein jagah mile to aur kahin na bhi mile to koi baat nahin".
Translated into English, it roughly reads as "If there's a place in heart, it's okay if there's none available elsewhere!".
In terms of business however, the line actually underscores a benevolent attitude of accomodativeness. Perhaps the accomodative disposition, to allow an idea to find a space in one's head and heart, is something the whole business world thrives upon. And it is the same accomodative nature that opened doors to the development of an industry in India.
It was 34 years ago, on 13th October 1989, that two extremely passionate and astutely industrious, pioneering individuals introduced a unique concept in India, which until then was totally unheard of.
It was the concept of creating intelligent storage solutions, which aimed to repurpose available space, and create more space. This concept subsequently went on to transform the way Indian businesses approached storage of their goods.
At the time of its introduction, the idea of "Mobile Compactor" storage systems was totally alien to the storage industry. However, these two passionate individuals foresaw its immense potential, and visioned that these would revolutionize the storage solutions in India.
With this firmament of an imagination and the vision in place, the next biggest challenge was to change mindsets and opening eyes of clients, to the amazing benefits that these scientific storage solutions offered. People had to be converted from conventional ways of thinking and primed up, to accept the new order.
However, the two pioneers persevered.
Slowly over time, their sheer innovation, the intelligence of their efforts, and coupled with the vast benefits brought in by these systems, turned the trickle into a flood.
Their enterprising efforts also gave rise to a thriving and diverse storage industry on the Indian soil. As of now, the company they set up, has proudly become the leading provider of mobile compactors and other intelligent storage solutions, not only in India, but also in select regions abroad.
The company is also a leader in institutional storage, warehouse storage, and automated storage. It also takes on specialized and turnkey projects, having executed many a high-profile client in extremely challenging situations. The company's solutions have become the "go-to" rather than the exception for big clients.
Today the company has a proud legacy of excellence, having won numerous awards for its innovative storage solutions. Its products have been used by some of the biggest names in Indian business. The company is also constantly innovating and developing new products and services to meet the growing needs of its customers.
Who these pioneering individuals are, you may ask!
They are Kamlesh Shah and Rajesh Gandhi. The enterprise that they created is well known today, as Kompress India Ltd.
As a second generation leader in the company, I feel extremely proud to be following on their footsteps closely.
On each foundation day of the company, we always reiterate our commitment towards leading the future of intelligent storage solutions in India.
