SMI Coated Products Private Limited, the leading
Indian Label Stock Solutions Provider, has been supplying to UAE Label Printers
from India for over a decade. The clients used to buy slit material as well as
jumbo reels. However, the clients had to collate a container load order every time.
Before SMI started supplies, clients of this region would have to plan for 2-3
months as that was the lead time then. SMI then started supplies from India and
the lead time was brought down to three to four weeks time.
After looking at the needs of the industry, SMI put
up its slitting terminal in Jabal Ali Free zone, Dubai. SMI Coated Products FZE
was started in 2017 and the lead times have dropped to less than a week. “Ever
since SMI FZE has come into existence, our clients are very happy as now they
no longer need to look up for additional space for expansion the space and
finances freed due to reduced inventory can be utilised for future expansion.”
Rajesh Khatwani, Sales & Marketing Director of SMI said. “UAE is the Centre
hub of import, repacking and export for the GCC & South Asia region for
various products. We at SMI are proud to be part of the growth story of UAE
Label Industry.”
Rohit Mehta, Corporate Director of SMI added “Gulf
Print Pack has also been a great meeting point for all our customers in this
region and we look forward to meeting everyone at the exhibition.” SMI FZE will
be there at Gulf Print Pack 2019 Stall 2F16, Dubai World Trade Centre between
15-18 April 2019.
