Customising for the customer
In order to further strengthen
ties with the customers, Voltas Chemicals
Trading keeps a close watch on the varied
requirements of different industries in
order to be a comprehensive source. For
example, if the cable industry uses a particular
chemical sourced by Voltas, efforts are
made to source agencies of other chemicals
required. A good example is that of the
toiletry industry. Voltas has been selling
cellulose gums to leading toothpaste manufacturers
such as Colgate, Geoffrey Manners and Balsara.
Since glycerine, sleanic
acid and lauric acid are the other important
chemicals used in the manufacture of toothpaste,
cosmetics and soaps, Voltas secured an agency
from Acidchem, Malaysia, a top glycerine
and fatty acids producer. Thus, Voltas now
supplies cellulose gums, glycerine and fatty
acids to its clientele in the toiletries
industry. In fact, when customers find that
Voltas is in a position to offer more than
one product, their trust in the company
increases and Voltas is able to win better
customer loyalty. Small wonder that Voltas
can claim relationships with both principals
and customers that go back over 45 years.
