Company History – Then
The origins of Vimal LifeSciences trace back to the Vimal Group, a specialty chemical distribution business founded in 1986 by Bimal Shah. The group began as a small chemical trading company supplying specialty chemicals to Indian industries. Over the years, it expanded its network, portfolio and partnerships with global chemical manufacturers.
To strengthen its presence in the life-science and personal-care sectors, Vimal LifeSciences Pvt. Ltd. was later incorporated as a dedicated division for specialty ingredients and technologies. The company focused on supplying ingredients for personal care, home care, pharmaceuticals and food industries.
From a small trading operation with a few employees, the Vimal Group gradually grew into one of India’s prominent specialty chemical distributors, supplying products sourced from international manufacturers to domestic industries.
