S. Gurmeet Singh Kular President FICO along
with S. Manjinder Singh Sachdeva General Secretary FICO met Mr. Erhard Buechel
President World Bicycle Industry Association & discussed in detail the
scope of High End Bicycle Manufacturing in India, the possibilities for
Transfer of Technology for the Manufacturing of high end Bicycles, Alloy Frames
Disc Brakes, Saddles & Forks in India were also discussed. The Major
concern of Mr. Edhard Buchel President World Bicycle Association was the
revival of Bicycle Chain, Spoke, Nipple, Steel balls industry in India &
further FICO is in discussion with UNIDO for the high end Technology to improve
the productivity of the bicycle Industry as a whole because India is being the
2nd Largest Manufacturer of Bicycles in the world and yet India does not have
the High End Technology.
The American & the European Market is the
big potential for the high end and high quality bicycles & bicycle parts.
There is a need for indigenous Indian manufacturers to pull up their socks and
manufacture in accordance to the American & European Standards, and there
is a never ending market for India to export Bicycle & Bicycle Parts in
over there.
So as far as Europe is concerned we have to
develop High End models with Joint Ventures to Upgrade the quality
of bicycles which is the need of the hour said S. Gurmeet Singh Kular President
FICO
