Founded in 1952 by late Shri K.V.Pendharkar,
the VICCO Group has emerged today as makers of the best internationally
known products of the Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of natural medicines.
Having production units at Dombivli, Nagpur and Goa
in India, their annual turnover has scored to Rs. 1500 millions. Their
best known products are Vicco Turmeric skin / sun screen cream, Vicco
Vajradanti powder and paste and Vicco SF (Sugar free) paste. About 15%
of company's total production goes to overseas market. VICCO products
constitute 4% of India's paste market. Under the able guidance of Shri.
G.K.Pendharkar, Chairman, the company has established strong
foothold in almost every developed country in Asia, Europe,
America, Africa and Australia. Combining ancient
wisdom with modern technology, the company has expanded business activities
into investment, trade, advertising and education sectors as well, 13
of its associate companies.
Right from its inception in the 1952, the
VICCO Group of companies has been charting an unwavering course that has
catapulted the group into international limelight. Today, 50 years later,
the group stands majestically as a grand conglomerate of 13 companies.
For its founding father, the Pandharkar,
it has been indeed a long journey. But for a concern, its only a humble
hop. Afterall, what are 50 years in the life of an organisation ? And
more than mere organisation, VICCO is a dream : a vision to be realised,
a promise to be fulfilled.
The vision is to reach
out to every civilisation. The promise is to make available
the boons of the Ayurveda to every home, far and near.
VICCO is determined to
achieve this goal.
