Integrating ALBIS' extensive portfolio with Sukhesh Group's market reach
The joint venture builds on the complementary strengths of both partners. ALBIS contributes its extensive portfolio of engineering plastics, long-standing technical sales expertise and strong relationships with global polymer manufacturers, while Sukhesh Group adds its pan-Indian network, established infrastructure and more than 30 years of experience in polymer distribution across India.
“The establishment of this joint venture marks an important milestone in ALBIS’ global growth strategy,” says Horst Klink, CEO of ALBIS. “India is developing rapidly and continues to gain economic as well as geopolitical importance. With the Sukhesh Group, we have a highly experienced partner at our side, equipped with an impressive nationwide logistics network and numerous warehouse locations. This extensive infrastructure provides a strong foundation for supporting customers across India with targeted and comprehensive solutions.”
The Sukhesh Group, a family-owned polymer distribution company with more than three decades of market experience, sees the joint venture as an important step forward. “We are very pleased to enter into this partnership with ALBIS,” says Urmish Parekh, director of the Sukhesh Group. “ALBIS brings an exceptionally broad product portfolio, deep technical expertise and strong relationships with leading global manufacturers. Together with our infrastructure and market reach, we are building a robust platform that will deliver real value to customers across India.”
India is benefiting from strong economic expansion, advancing industrialization and a growing role as a global manufacturing hub. Demand for engineering plastics is expected to grow above average in the coming years, particularly in sectors such as Mobility, E&E or Building & Construction.
