In conversation with CNCTimes.com during IMTEX Forming, 2016, the Managing Director of Nachi KG Technology India Pvt Ltd, Mr. Hiroaki Kobayashi said, “Indian market is very important for Nachi as far as expanding the business in this part of the world is concerned. Though we are very new to this market as we started our operations just three years ago, we are studying the market and its behavioral pattern, but one thing is sure that this market has got tremendous potential to compete with the best in the industry globally.”
Mr. Kobayashi agreed that Indian market is price sensitive and the cost factor always plays an important role while selecting any technology. “However, I think the Indian market is very open and this trend will change in couple of years. It has to change since the Union Government and other agencies are coming up with some attractive schemes so as to promote the technology,” Mr. Kobayashi said and added that the market needs some time to response to these initiatives.
About Nachi’s vision as regards India, Mr. Kobayashi said, “Expansion of our 140-member strong team is certainly on our cards.
