Picanol’S Presence In India
Picanol has been successfully serving the Indian market since 1956. In light of the potential and expected growth of the Indian market, Picanol decided to set up its own organization in India in early 2008. The aim behind this move was to ensure it could more actively support its local activities. Since this local presence was established, Picanol has been strongly focusing on local sales and service activities.
In recent years, Picanol India has seen a steady growth in its market share and this has led to it becoming the leading provider of weaving machines on the local market today. India is a market that is of crucial importance for Picanol as it is one of the world’s key textile markets.
In addition to the main office in Delhi (with electronic print repair shop), the regional offices in Mumbai and Coimbatore are proof of Picanol’s strong presence in the Indian market. In total, a team of 35 Picanol professionals in India are committed to serving its customers.
With the broadest product range on the market, improved local services and considerable presence, Picanol remains highly committed to India. Indeed, its ambition is to become the leading provider of weaving systems for the entire Indian weaving sector.
