Gujarat State Plastics Manufacturers Association

The Gujarat State Plastics Manufacturers Association is up on the 7th floor of the Span Trade Center, right near Paldi Char Rasta in Ellisbridge. It’s a busy intersection, so there is always a lot of noise coming up from the street. We’ve been here for quite some time now. Our office isn't about being fancy or having the latest decor. It’s a place where plastic manufacturers from all over Gujarat can come to get their issues sorted out. You’ll mostly find us buried under paperwork or helping someone with membership forms. There are stacks of industry magazines and notices pinned up everywhere. We spend our days organizing meetings and keeping our members updated on what’s happening in the plastics world. It’s very much a hands-on environment. There’s always someone stopping by for a quick chat or a cup of tea. We have a few old wooden cabinets and desks that have seen better days, but they do the job. We don’t do much in the way of advertising because people in the industry already know we are here. Most of our work is just coordinating between different companies and government bodies. It’s a lot of phone calls and emails, but we manage to keep things moving. It feels like a small community here in the office, even though we deal with manufacturers from all across the state. We just keep our heads down and get the work done.
