When exactly did you commence operations in India and why?
We started our direct operations in India in 2015 specifically to cater to the Indian and Middle Eastern market. We already had a large number of customers in this area and wanted to have a local office in India to better facilitate our communication with these companies and assist in expediting delivery of products to them.
What kind of a potential do you see for your products in the India / Middle East market?
