Pioneer of Steel Distributors: PV Ukkuru International Trade
UNIQUE TIMES|March - April 2020
For more than eight decades, P V Ukkuru Group of Companies have supplied their customers more than just iron and steel. P V Ukkuru, the founder of the group of companies, began his humble beginning by starting a business of iron nails in 1942 in Coimbatore. Then, little did he know that he was laying the foundation of steel trade in South India.
Pioneer of Steel Distributors: PV Ukkuru International Trade

Leading the network of steel distribution in South India, P V Ukkuru Group of Companies is a trusted name in the steel industry. “We are a business partner, a trusted provider of comprehensive product lines and infrastructure solutions, backed by a solid guarantee, fast and friendly service and incredible sourcing capabilities,” said P Jose Ukkuru, the Managing Director of P V Ukkuru Group of Companies. My father mastered the art of making nails as an apprentice in a blacksmith’s shop, and in no time he opened his retail shop and managed to become a dealer in goods produced by Tata Steel and Steel Authority of India, he added.

Gradually the fame and quality of the product spread across Kerala and a new branch office in Kerala was opened in 1964. P V Ukkuru’s keen business shrewdness gave wings to the P V Ukkuru Group, setting the stage for his sons Jose & Paulson Ukkuru to identify new markets and expand their distribution network across India and the International market. With branch offices in Coimbatore, Madras and Kochi in India, P V Ukkuru International Trade is moving forward to realms outside the nation.
