As strategic planning for better turn around and delivery time Key lens making facility at Bengaluru with new smaller regional units will be a centre of excellence. At off now, two such smaller facilities have come up – one each in Noida and Kolkata – and a third at Mumbai is expected to be operational by July,2016.

Bhaskar Bhat, MD, of Titan Company said this new manufacturing unit has already enough raw materials to supply the finished product less than 24 hours. Even Andaman & Nicobar Island will come under this region. East and North East will get the lens in less than 48 hours.  For instance, a frame ordered in Kolkata would take 4-5 days for delivery. Post the new facility it will be delivered within 24-48 hours.

Mr. Bhaskar Bhat, MD, Titan Company Limited, inaugurated the new facility. Speaking on the occasion, he said,

The East region is a growing market and a key region for Titan Eyeplus. We have set up this state-of-the-art lens manufacturing unit in Madhyamgram to meet the increasing needs of the region.
