"We are committed to leveraging our experience, capabilities, and expansive scale thereby strengthening the global manufacturing landscape. Together, we will forge a path towards a shared, prosperous future, marked by strong collaboration and growth," Shah said.
      
The initiative’s modular approach will allow businesses to select products, services, and financing options from the Mahindra Group’s entire suite of offerings based on their exclusive requirements, it said.
        
With a demonstrated commitment to the highest ESG standards, sustainable manufacturing solutions will be a key component of the initiative, it added.
       
The Mahindra Group offers self-sufficient industrial parks at strategic locations and expertise to guide companies through the approval processes, it stated.
