The Directory of the Local Industry : Kn Manufacturing Co Ltd

Director : Saloshna Naidoo

For a decade, KN Manufacturing has been engaged in the production of uniquely designed fittings and such, within the ever-growing plumbing sector in Mauritius. These products,renowned for their excellence and strengthened by the Made-in-Moris label, are the present key contributors of the unswerving loyalty expressed by the clientele.

The initial struggles to pave its way amongst the leading fi gures of the industry has been overcome by two fundamental considerations; Modernisation and Innovation. As KN Manufacturing functions to develop new-fangled possibilities in the domestic plumbing field, its products prove: a resistance through their rigidity, an ease of use as a result of their technical enhancements and a standardised production approach towards quality. Raveesen Naidoo, engineer by profession, had visualized and realized each product with a consideration towards improving usability and performance, contributing to a distinction of the brand on the market. With a consideration for the standards imposed by the MSB, quality polymer being the principal raw materials for the fabrication of fi ttings had been imported. Raveesen Naidoo himself trained and guided the team to manipulate the complex machinery; a task that required a certain level of mastery and patience.

Further to the above-mentioned, the lack of visibility and identity of the products during the early days of production had driven them to undertake brand awareness initiatives. This involved networking with Contractors and Wholesalers and representing the trustworthiness and excellence expressed by the brand.

KN Manufacturing intends to expand and increase its product portfolio and plans to increase investments and participation in projects for the upcoming years. With a current workforce of less than 10 people yet permitting them to grow each year, there are absolutely no doubts that additions to the team will make the company’s vision far more achievable.
