In the year 1938, when the reverberations of the Industrial Revolution had not yet reached the interiors of South India, Mr. P A C Ramaswamy Raja setup the first spinning mill at Rajapalayam, which later became the focal point of the Ramco Group. His sharp focus on technology and quality inspired a generation of entrepreneurs and formed the basis for the collective vision of the Group.
