This chemical trader takes pride in being one of its kind in Ankleshwar
Aashish Maheshwari – Founder, Hari Om Enterprises
With a capital investment of 5 lakh, Aashish Maheshwari, started Hari Om Enterprise at the age of 24, which is now a whopping 18.5 Crore company that’s growing exponentially not only within India but overseas as well. To become an entrepreneur was always in his mind, as he started working at the age of 16 simultaneously with his studies. Being all by his own, enjoy his freedom and take up challenges when it came his way, was it all that drew him towards entrepreneurship. Throughout his career, Aashish has been a fighter, workaholic and risk taker.
After graduating in Chemistry, he went on to pursue MBA in marketing, and in 2002 set up his chemical business, which served his core area of interest i.e. Chemicals and Chemistry. He manufactures industrial chemicals such as hydrochloric acid, calcium chloride, liquid ferric chloride, ferric chloride hexahydrate etc. Aashish declares,
“Our chemicals are tested on diverse norms of quality so as to deliver assured quality product to our set of clients. Our valuable patrons can avail this ferric chloride hexahydrate at affordable prices which qualifies international standard norms.”
Currently Hari Om Enterprise caters to industries such as Steel, Fertilizer, Pharmaceuticals & Drugs, Dyes, and Speciality Chemicals etc. They have an indirect hand of supplying quality raw materials which is consumed by the society directly, and hence takes pride in the same. Under the able leadership of Aashish, the company grew 3X and have made recent tie-ups with international entities. The future is bright, as most of the company would want continuous supply of raw materials in form of industrial chemicals which adheres to international quality standards yet is affordable.
Aashish is highly inspired by his Late father Shri Satishchandra Maheshwari. He says,
“My father is still remembered for his professional approach in his job, his thinking, his helping nature, his straight forwardness in life and his ability to handle obstacles in life. If I try and be atleast 30% of what he was I will think I have achieved 100%.”
It was financial situation that was major hindrance to his venture. Secondly to enter the market where big players were already established was a tough task. Yet, patience was the key and speaking and delivering with honesty made it possible to crack the market. The never give up attitude worked and further boosted his confidence. The fact that Ankleshwar is the largest chemical hub in Asia, helped him to set-up his own with the required infrastructure and resources.
According to Aashish, commitment and honesty plays a huge role in becoming a reliable businessman. Apart from this, time management, anger management, zeal to learn new things, meeting new people, networking and analysing human behaviour too helps you to grow in your field of business. Past few years have been glorious for Hari Om Enterprises, as it won some prestigious awards, such as India 5000 Best MSME Award for Quality Excellence in 2018, Business Icon Award 2021, India Top 100 Rising Entrepreneurs 2021, Iconic Brand of The Year 2021, and International Service Pride Awards 2022. And with that, we wish Aashish and his venture all the success and a bright future.
