Hero
Group > Profile
"Hero", the brand name symbolizing the steely ambition
of the Munjal brothers, came into being in the year 1956. From
a modest manufacturer of bicycle components in the early 1940's
to the world's largest bicycle manufacturer today, the odyssey
was fueled by one vision - to build long-lasting relationships
with everyone, including workers, dealers and vendors. This
philosophy has paid rich dividends through the years.
Hero, a
name synonymous with two wheelers in India is today a multi-unit,
multi-product, geographically diversified Group of companies.
Through fully integrated operations, the Munjals roll their
own steel, make critical components such as free wheels for
their bicycles, and have the foresight to simultaneously diversify
into myriad ventures, like product designing, IT enabled services,
finance and insurance, just to name a few.
Like every
success story, Hero's saga contains an element of spirit and
enterprise; of achievement through grit and determination, coupled
with vision and meticulous planning. Throughout its success
trail, the Hero Group and its members have displayed unwavering
passion of setting higher standards for themselves and delivering
simply the best to their customers.
The Hero
Group philosophy is: "To provide excellent transportation
to the common man at easily affordable prices and to provide
total satisfaction in all its spheres of activity."
Thus apart from being customer-centric, the Hero Group also
provides its employees with a fine quality of life and its business
associates with a total sense of belonging.
"Engineering
Satisfaction" is the prime motive of the Hero Group
and it has become a way of life and a part of the work culture
of the Group. This is what drives the Group to seek newer vistas,
adopt faster technology and create quality driven products to
the utmost satisfaction of customers, partners, dealers and
vendors.
Today the
Hero Group has a number of accolades and achievements to its
credit … yet consumer requirements and newer technologies
provide fresh challenges every day, and at Hero the wheels of
progress continue to turn ...
