DRIVING TRANSFORMATION SINCE 1981
Visaka Industries was established in 1981 by Mr. G Vivekanand — a first-generation entrepreneur who started the company with a vision of being a ‘credible, passionate and innovative solution provider’. Over the years, Visaka Industries has firmly planted its leadership position in the manufacturing of sustainable, eco-friendly and new age building products.
What started out 38 years ago as a corrugated cement fibre sheets manufacturing unit has now transformed into a pan-Indian business of eco-friendly and sustainable building products with 12 manufacturing plants, over 7000 dealer outlets, and exports to more than 18 countries.
The company is now led by second generation entrepreneur Mr. G. Vamsi Krishna (son of Dr. G. Vivekanand and Mrs. Saroja Vivekanand) who is an alumnus of Purdue University. Having worked as a Chief Business Strategist from July 2012 to May 2014 and Whole Time Director from June 2014 to May 2017, he was elevated to the position of Joint Managing Director in May 2017.
Mr. Vamsi Krishna is also responsible for the development of the company’s overall strategy and operations.
