Aditya Birla Group, about which it is said that success does not hinder the need of learning and experimentation. The heritage of this company can be traced back to the 19th century and today it is a $44.3 billion corporation. What makes this group unique is how it has upheld its values for years for over 7 decades now. In the leader, Kumar Managalam Birla’s own words
“If living by our values means, perhaps growing at a pace slower than we would otherwise have liked, so be it. For us, leadership lies at the heart of knowing what we stand for”. These words portray the kind of culture and values ABG upholds and these words itself illustrate the success story of this company.
ABG has woven it’s history in golden threads by putting India on the global map by being 1st in Aluminium Rolling, 1st in Viscose Staple Fibre, 1st in Carbon Black, 4th Largest Producer of Insulators, 5th Largest Producer of Acrylic Fibre and among the Best Energy Efficient Fertiliser Plants around the globe.
ABG’s history has deep ties with India’s history. ABG’s endeavours are India’s endeavours.
The flagship of Aditya Birla Group, Grasim Industries, was incorporated on 25th August 1947, just 10 days after the independence. Then, it just manufactured textiles from imported raw materials, today it is a global leader in viscose staple fibre.
It has not only proved its mettle in the business world but has also contributed to the society by giving back to it, be it through health care, education, sustainable livelihood programmes or infrastructure. It has made a difference to the society and continues to do so.
Today, Aditya Birla Group owns and runs an array of brands which people are so connected to. Brands which I know are owned by the group, brands which I love and never knew were owned by the Aditya Birla Group, Allen Solly, Peter England and so many more.
Being an MBA student, it is of utmost importance to be confident and look powerful in a professional attire, for me, ABG has given me that through Van Huesen. Van Heusen has made me feel comfortable and confident about my body. ABG’s presence in my life is massive through my attire and apart from that, ABG’s presence in this country is massive through all it’s successful ventures, aspirations and its mission.
