About

KMC Group

KMC is a family run business, started by the late Shri Harish Kumar Agarwal in 1974. It spread its reach across South India, setting up facilities in Chennai, Hyderabad and Kerala. As the business grew and the next generation came in, Chennai and Hyderabad became independent entities run by family members. Under the new leadership of his eldest son Mr. Ajay and his family, KMC diversified into hospitality, glass, and manufacturing. The company has directly exported to Germany, Sri Lanka and Zambia, while our customers have exported to various other countries around the world.

We believe in the concept of win-win in all our transactions, and our open-door policy helps us to honour the customers' need for flexibility in today's rigid environment. In an industry that is largely disorganised, our value system ensures the best service, while maintaining the highest standards of quality, transparency and fair practice.

What We Are Aiming At

Mission and Vision

Mission

At KMC, we aspire to be the best in our industry, not the biggest. We aim to provide our customers the quality of the biggest companies while being as flexible and nimble as the smallest.

Vision

To nurture and cultivate our employees, shareholders and be a part of the ecosystem that nourishes, provides and looks after all of its stakeholders. To stand the test of time, handle all extremes, and no challenge that can't be conquered.

What We Stand For

Our Values

There is a general understanding that work can be kept separate from who you are. Since most of our time awake is at work, it inevitably plays a large role on your psyche and personality. Cultivating the right values at the workplace not only serves as a guideline to direct business decisions, but also acts as a reminder to all within KMC on what we aspire our collective identity to be.

Excellence

We believe the way to do great work is to look at a business not as a hundred metre sprint, but rather a marathon for the ages. We do this by consistently giving it our best, pushing boundaries, conquering new challenges and leading by example.

Sustainability

We believe in being responsible towards the environment, mindful to the generations to come and all that is a part of the ecosystem. We choose to not give credence to the greed in the inevitable path of capitalism; it has its benefits but we must not be consumed by it.

Team Work

We believe at our workplace that each employee has to take a group identity yet grow their individual identity. We must be able to participate as a part of a bigger system and be able to take ownership of our responsibilities.

Win - Win

We believe healthy competition can inspire, motivate, and drive one to be the best that one can be. We cultivate a progressive market where we strive to achieve greater degrees of technical capabilities, but not at the expense of another.

The People

Our Team

As an organisation we believe in a certain value system which creates the foundation on which we function. Just as every organism is important to an ecosystem, we honour each person's contribution to the whole. The management lays down the blueprint, while the team brings that dream to reality. No matter what the infrastructure available, a passionate and dedicated team is what makes it possible to push boundaries and achieve heights of quality and excellence.
