Last year has been very good for FIBRO India. Our theme has been ‘Expanding Horizon'. We have expanded in every facet of business i.e. product range, customer base, manufacturing facility/capacity, IT infrastructure, manpower, etc.
What are your expectations from 2019?
We expect to grow in domestic market by 10-15% and equally in export business. However, on the other hand economists have predicted world recession in 2019. The best strategy in recession is to launch the new product which helps you to keep the head above the water.
