“We believe this innovative investment will revolutionize the way modular Steel buildings are constructed.

Speaking during the commissioning ceremony, the SAFBUILD Business Head, Manish Garg was confident that many projects across commercial, agricultural, industrial, and social sectors will benefit from the solution.
“Since commissioning we have produced and supplied several projects to satisfied clients and we have many more in the pipeline under current design and production. The buildings are made fit-for-purpose to exacting designs and are environmentally sustainable” added Garg.

“Entrepreneurs have to learn the power of networking and the value of mentorship, as these are the things that most entrepreneurs take for granted. And also they must know that opportunities will not come to them; they have to go out there and create them by knocking on corporate doors with proposals. Personally, I am where I am because of a business mentor who changed the way I see things.”
