VISION 

 

Our vision is to grow rapidly with the help of newer technologies and tapping

latent needs of the consumers. It is our firm belief that if we can provide

what consumers need, in a way they need, there is hardly a reason why

Vimal brand will not soon become one of the most preferred and trusted

brands. For this we will keep re-assessing and build upon our strengths and

improve upon our weaknesses. As part of the Vimal group, we, the Promoters

& the employees should never compromise on the promises of quality and

innovation. And the goals are ours to reach.

MISSION

 

Continue to provide value added products in an ethical and competitive way

to the community.

 

Businesses are to generate profits. The difference with us is how we define

profit. We believe that any exchange of goods and services should leave

both- the giver and taker- satisfied and pleased. This generates trust. This in

turn is, key to the growth and even survival of a company. On the other

hand, adapting to changing times – whether it is new technology or

consumer needs makes a business profitable. This profitability allows

continuity and growth of the business. In short, it is a two way process.

 GOAL

"To satisfy our customers by giving all the paint and coating related solutions at their doorstep".

LITRETURE

Vimal paints Ltd., the flagship company of Vimal Group, was started in

1990 with the holy hand of Param Punjay Pramukh Swami Maharaj (Head BAPS),

in Mehsana, Gujarat, with a small 50-ton refinery, and today it has evolved into a

fully integrated and automatic processing unit with an annual turnover or Rs. 630

crores, listed with Ahmedabad and Bombay Stock Exchange.

A vimal paint is always committed to quality and integrity, and that’s what reflects

in our products that never fail to delight our customers. With a single goal of

offering our customers a superior range of products that they can choose as per

their needs. In that quest, we have broadened our business horizons by introducing

Wood primer, Vimal flat paint, Vim SEM cement paint, Vimal aluminum paint,

Vimal oil paint.

Despite the considerable success the company has achieved, it continues to invest

substantial resources in exploring and adopting the latest technological

advancements in their chosen field. Which is what enables their R&D to constantly

come up with new, innovative solutions?

Page 14: Vimal Paints

VIMAL PAINTS LIMITEDThe Manufacturing facility comprises an integrated, continuous plant, set up by

Alfa Laval. All the packaging is done in-house. In fact the Company has gone in

for backward integration, by manufacturing its own packs. Be it Tins, HDPE jars,

PET bottles or corrugated boxes. This works out to be very cost-effective, and also

retains the quality of the product. The products are lab-tested at every stage, staring

with the raw material, and ending with final packaging.

With the immense experience of the Vimal Group, It has earned a solid reputation

for its vision, entrepreneurial spirit and competitive edge.

the staff, suppliers, clients, and shareholders...all the way to its end-users –the

customers, more so, as their products are meant for human consumption.

MARKET POTENTIAL:

Market potential is the limit approached by market demand as industry marketing

expenditure approach infinity for a given marketing environment.

things are equal, the company’s market share would depend on the size and

effectiveness of its market expenditures relative to Competitors.
