Havi India, a global player in the instrumentation and valve space, recently launched India’s ‘first of its kind’ e- store for instrumentation, valves and fittings. Backed by a team of over 100 professionals, distributors in over 14 countries, a customer base in over 22 countries and a state-of-the-art factory headquarter at Vasai near Mumbai, Havi has changed the game by going online.

A brainchild of the Group’s two founders, Vipul Panchal, Technical Director, Havi India and Akash Dalal, Director, Business Development – The Havi Group, bridges the gap between the specific needs of manufacturers and distributors and the product supply available in the space.

Throwing light on this concept, Vipul Panchal said, ‘The Indian instrumentation is a huge space that is yet considerably untapped. Havi has been around in the market since a decade and we are in sync with the needs of the space. Having a strong foothold on a global front, we decided we must do something to upgrade and improve the space in our home country and so the HAVI store was born.”

Last minute requirement, critical breakdowns, inventory management and maintenance costs – the instrumentation and valve industry in India faces a number of obstacles daily, which in turn has a direct impact on the daily operations and profit margins of distributors and manufacturers.

Elaborating on the need to digitalise, Akash Dalal said “The shift from on ground to online purchases is very evident today with everyone right from homemakers to B2B businesses, buying online. If every industry is going online, then why leave instrumentation behind.”

Akash adds, “Simply put it is a seamless platform that gives manufacturers and distributors PAN India instant access to buy fittings and valves they require, manage inventory costs as well as the security of good quality products, all in a single space.”
