Venkateswara Steels & Springs India Private Limited

Our business, Venkateswara Steels & Springs India Private Limited, is located at 27, Ginning Factory Street in Coimbatore. If you know Coimbatore, you know this is a place where people really understand how to work with their hands and machines. We’ve been here for a long time, making various types of steels and springs for different uses. The street is always busy with trucks and people moving parts around, so it’s never really quiet at our unit. We aren't some big corporate entity with a HR department and fancy lounge areas. It’s a workshop environment through and through. There is usually the smell of metal and oil in the air, and our clothes aren't always the cleanest by the end of the shift. We have a small team of workers who have mostly been with us for a long time. We know each other's kids and we talk about local news while we work. We don't spend money on advertising or trying to look bigger than we are. We just focus on getting the springs right so the customers come back when they need more. Sometimes the machines act up or the heat in Tamil Nadu gets a bit much in the afternoons, but we just take a short break and then get back to it. It’s a simple, practical way of running a business and it works for us here on Ginning Factory Street.
