On the new products being displayed at the Auto Expo 2016
This time we are bringing in the latest Hunter Revolution tyre changer which was launched in the US last year and is one of its kind. This tyre changer is fully automatic. This is what we are displaying here and it is a real crowd puller. We are the representatives for Hunter company of the US and a few others from India. We market their products in the entire country. We have been in the business for the last 27 years. We represent the major brand like Hunter of US, Ravaglioli and Texa of Italy, etc which are garage equipment while we have other companies like Telwin which is into welding equipment, Rotary another US brand, among others.
On the company’s focus areas
Our main focus is on the passenger cars segment. We are also into suspension of truck industry segment. We market Hunter truck wheel aligners and wheel balancers. The there are lifting and tyre changing equipment for trucks. We are active in both the segments.
On the growth of the garage equipment industry
Our growth is directly proportional to the growth of the automobile industry growth. The growth in the automobile industry is booming today and in the passenger car segment we see the launch of a lot of new models. This means a lot more dealerships and in turn we are growing too. We are catering mainly to the premium segment of all the cars. We have got approvals from every OEM in India. We supply our equipment to their production lines and even their R&D centres. Today we can proudly say that every R&D centre of almost every manufacturer is using some of our equipment in their R&D labs. We have also got approvals from every manufacturer for their service centres across India. We also supply to almost every workshop in India plus the tyre industry.
On the stand alone Auto Components show
I have been participating in the Auto Expo since 1998. All the time the garage equipment players were pushed into a corner but this time we are in a proper building. With such expensive equipment that we have, we were not happy to be pushed in one corner of the fair ground. Now we have ben given a prominent place and this time we only have serious people visiting our stall. When the components and motor shows were combined years back we had people more interested in seeing cars and they used to barge into our stalls to see whether we were selling any cars. But today we are happy to note that we are having a better response than the previous shows. This time its far more focussed.
