Romaco has just appointed Sanjeev A Nimkar as Managing Director of Romaco India. From mid-October 2022, he will take over as Head of Romaco’s Indian Sales & Service Center headquartered in Mumbai.

Romaco Holding GmbH has appointed Sanjeev A Nimkar as new Managing Director of Romaco India Pvt. Ltd. From mid-October 2022, he will be responsible in this role for managing all operations of Romaco’s Indian Sales & Service Center, with headquarters in Mumbai and a branch office in Hyderabad. Romaco India currently employs around 35 people and oversees both original equipment business and customer service on the Indian subcontinent. The subsidiary also has a spare parts store as well as its own demonstration and training center.

“With Sanjeev A Nimkar to support us at the helm of Romaco India, we’re aiming not only to further strengthen our sales and service activities in the region but also to take advantage of the Indian infrastructure to offer services for the entire Romaco Group. In short, the idea is to gain maximum leverage from the enormous growth opportunities provided by the Indian market”, explains Jörg Pieper, CEO Romaco Group.

In the course of his professional career spanning nearly 30 years, Sanjeev A Nimkar has held numerous top sales and management positions at international manufacturers of machinery and components. These include around six years as General Manager of IMA-PG India, where he was in charge of the IMA Safe Division. Prior to joining Romaco, Nimkar was Vice President Sales of Optel Vision India, a provider of track & trace technologies. He graduated with a degree in mechanical engineering from the Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute (VJTI) in Mumbai.

“It was the very broad product range of a full-service provider with technologies covering the entire process chain from powder to pallet, that particularly attracted me to Romaco. The international Romaco Group has an excellent reputation in India, which gives us a very good starting point for successful operations in this highly dynamic market. I’m greatly looking forward to this new challenge, and I’m confident that my leadership experience and extensive technical know-how will stand me in good stead when it comes to boosting confidence in our products and building long-term customer relationships,” said Nimkar.
