COMPANY OVERVIEW:

In the late 1960's, when the sea food processing industry was not that active, Late Shri. M. V. Ramachandra Bhat, founder, Mangala Group got into the field of sea food processing. 18 years of joint venture with Paragon Group gave him enough experience and confidence to start an export company of his own. He was confident enough to face risk and challenges, and drink from the cup of success, which he eventually did.
Mangala Group exploded tremendously to become a market leader in Kerala, or even South India. It achieved new heights with both production volume and turnover increasing many manifolds every year. From 500MT in 1985 to 100,000 MT in 2017-18, Mangala Group has never had a dip in exports in its track record. Looking back through its progress, Mangala Marine Exim India Pvt. Ltd. has had exceptional track record and created new records which the company itself breaks.

The company expanded so rapidly that orders could not be fulfilled with just one plant. To overcome this, the company acquired a new plant. Even this could not help cope up productionwith orders. With little plans to stop, the company established a third plant and then a fourth plant.
