Apeejay Institute of Hospitality

History

In 1910, Pyare Lal, a young patriot, responding to the nation's call for self-sufficiency, set up a small unit in Jalandhar, to manufacture steel goods for the domestic agricultural market. His untiring efforts saw the firm "Amin Chand Pyare Lal" growand by World War II, become profitable enough to employ 100 people. The small unit in Jalandhar rapidly expanded into an enterprise fuelled by a fierce pioneering spirit. It was destined to achieve many breakthroughs in post-independence India.Over the years, this successful conglomerate came to be recognized as Apeejay Surrendra Group - the A standing for Amin Chand (Pyare Lal's father) P for Pyare Lal and J for Jalandhar. It is a perfect tribute to the industrious ancestors and founders as well as remembering the place from where this illustrious journey began. It also honours its dynamic late Chairman, Surrendra Paul.Today, Apeejay Surrendra Group employs close to 42000 people in rapidly expanding operations in Tea, Hospitality, Shipping, Real Estate & Retail and Financial Services. The family values that have nurtured the Group continue to guide the conglomerate as it diversifies into new initiatives like Shipyards, Logistics & Knowledge Parks.
