A simple quote can change one man’s entire life- “A customer is the most important visitor on our premises.

It changed the perspective of Mr. Sunil Agarwal, the managing director of the Eskag group of companies. He stepped into the business at a very young age. His father had three manufacturing plants in metal and pulses.

“We lost our father in 1971. We started as a pharmaceutical distributor with just two employees in a 200 sq. ft office space and I continued my education and completed B.com in 1982.” shares Mr. Agarwal. During his extensive journey, Mr. Agarwal realized fulfilling the genuine needs of customers in the most effective and efficient manner is of utmost importance.

Recognizing that the individuals working along with him would be instrumental in propelling his business forward, he conceived the idea that remains central to his approach: “For the people, by our people”- this ethos continues to guide his beliefs and actions.

As a leading pharmaceutical company in the country, Eskag Pharma Pvt. Ltd. stays committed to its mission of providing high-quality yet affordable healthcare solutions to the general public in India.

The Inspiration

In a recent interview, Mr. Sunil Agarwal shared his inspiring journey, which had a humble beginning.

Despite his initial aspiration to pursue a medical career, he ultimately redirected his path and embraced the role of an entrepreneur. Sunil’s mother was a pillar of strength, in every aspect.

“My mother was my major source of inspiration to grow in life. I still follow her words – Work for others, your job will be done automatically. Never believe in the shortcut gains. A long-term journey is difficult but is always fruitful. She played a pivotal role in the growth of my professional career & personal philosophy too.” Mr. Agarwal shares.

A Pioneer in Affordable Healthcare Solutions

Honesty and hard work guided Mr. Sunil on the path to success. Despite facing challenges, his resilience led him to build the Kolkata-based company into a flourishing business venture.
