These
have been the hallmarks of Avon Export
since its inception in 1987 in Mirzapur, a city
in the state of Uttar Pradesh, nearly 800 kilometers
east-west of India’s capital, New Delhi.
And these hallmarks, during the past nearly 18
years, have enabled the Avon Export
to carve out a niche for itself in the export
markets in the world’s most developed segments—the
USA, Europe and Australia.
Shiv Lal Maurya, the man behind the enterprise,
began his tryst with the rare art of carpet weaving
just when he had touched the threshold of his
youth. Beginning from the grassroots as a weaver
of high-quality carpets for those who hired his
services, he graduated soon to a higher pedestal
in carpet industry. From weaving the carpets himself,
he turned out to be a much-in-demand expert to
undertake contract for reputed manufacturers for
weaving of carpets for them by his own team of
carpet weavers.
The
base, thus being long and varied, coupled with
the sound expertise acquired over a sufficiently
long period of time; Shiv Lal Maurya took the
next natural step towards giving a shape to his
excellence as a manufacturer of carpets under
the umbrella of his own enterprise.
Thus
was born the Avon Export in 1987.
And
since then, neither Shiv Lal Maurya nor his Avon Export had any breathing time to look
back. The initial warm reception which the carpets
made by the unit evoked among the carpet lovers
abroad led to a tremendous spurt in the demand
for its carpets, creating an enviable record of
producing a
total of about 18,000 thousands of carpets since
then..
With
the enthusing support coming from the buyers in
export markets, the momentum continues unabated
even now, and the Avon Export has been
marching ahead with its yearly production having
crossed now well over 5,000 square yards of carpets.
And all this under the SINGLE-ROOF MANUFACTURING
undertaken at the Avon Export, where
an ever-vigilant team of quality-maintenance experts
take abundant care that knotwise weaving quality
is uncompromisingly maintained
