The new SMI India subsidiary is a new business reality established to consolidate and strengthen SMI’s footprint in a country experiencing rapid expansion in the food and beverage industry.
From Goregaon (Mumbai) to assist the Indian beverage market
SMI boasts in India a fleet of about 60 machines (including 3 rotary stretch-blow moulders), that are currently installed at key bottling companies; therefore, it has become a priority to have a local facility to provide existing and future customers with a better and faster service.
Led by Vithal Kalbate, a professional with an extended experience in the Indian beverage market, the new SMI India company is based in Goregaon (Mumbai) and has a spare parts warehouse and a local after-sales staff.
Already within the first weeks of activity, the new SMI subsidiary received several requests for the supply of spare parts and overhaul technical interventions of the machines in production.
