Shubham Flexible Packaging Machines Pvt. Ltd. is the brainchild behind Mr. Virendra Sharma's dream to contribute to India's economy and put India on the global map as a quality manufacturing market
With the burgeoning economy of the 90s came the demand for individual or sachet packs in the market. Sachet packaging enabled businesses to offer their products in smaller and affordable sample sizes. This strategy also came in handy to tap into the lower-end, single-use market in India. On noticing the paucity of India-owned companies that catered to this demand, Mr. Virendra Sharma endeavoured to start his own company, to drive the catalyst for manufacturing in India. He began with a small workshop that would build sachet making machines called vertical form fill seal technology.
State-of-the-Art Manufacturing
With sachets being used to sell everything from small volumes of shampoo or conditioner to ketchups and other condiments, the sachet market has provided good business for brands, particularly in rural areas, due to their affordability. Sachets account for sizeable sales figures for many FMCG, health care, dairy and cosmetic companies. With the market set to grow at a fast pace globally, especially in Asia, Africa, Middle East and Latin America, Mr. Sharma made the propitious move of expanding his operation to a world-class manufacturing enterprise. Today, two state-of-the-art plants, located in Faridabad, 50 kms away from Delhi Airport, service the needs of clients both in India and abroad. Utilising German and US-engineered systems and robots, the company manufacturers collar type, multi-track form fill & seal Flow wrap Machines, collar type machines, robotic solutions and secondary packaging solutions. While a majority of its revenue is derived from the sale of machines, the company also provides consultation & management and product analysis services.
Expanding Business Footprint
Today, this homegrown brand aims to be a testament of India’s prowess in the engineering sector. In Mr. Sharma’s capable hands, Shubham Pack has emerged as a preferred supplier of sachet making machines over European competitors. It has even tapped into the Chinese market, where it is impossible for Indian-made machines to get a foothold. Today, the company has established its presence in over 25 countries, with a target to double this number within the next two years. The company is currently managed by Mr. Virendra Sharma (MD) along with his sons (Executive Directors) Mr Rishabh Sharma and Shubham Sharama, whose combined vision is to expand the business into other packaging mediums to meet growing market demand.
