While India was celebrating its ground-breaking victory and first World Cup title at Lord’s, Vidyasagar Veesamsetty, a young Articled Clerk in a CA firm was smashing a coconut to set up an alumini-um extrusion company in Hyderabad. This would inspire many other entre-preneurs and pave the way to set up a whole new industry sector around Alu-minium.
That’s the mark of a leader. Leaders think different, act different, transform a vision into reality and chart out new opportunities for many to follow. Vidyasagar actually conceptualised the idea way back in 1977 but Sagar Asia came into form with the first aluminium extrusion plant in 1989. There has been no looking back after that.
This approach made Sagar Asia stand out and become a pioneer in developing world-class Aluminium products.
Today, the multi-million-dollar entity, Sagar Asia Private Limited has emerged as the number 1 Aluminium Engineering company in India.
